Hey everybody,
I recently "started" temp driving, I say "started" because about 12 people with less seniority than me have started (for real) driving almost 2 weeks ago, obviously I caught on and literally got it resolved this morning. My center sup told me "We will start you next Thursday", at which point I said "I should have started two weeks ago, so how about tomorrow?" (for my 3 days of training) and he proceeded to give me some story about no volume bc we arent getting anything from up north and he has to give the training route to full time drivers, it actually makes sense but I don't trust this guy because last week he told me "We don't make seniority mistakes". Obviously I will be filing for time as well as the days I should have received towards my 30 day qualification.
My question is, this same supervisor told me that any days I drive in December will NOT go towards my qualification, is this true? If so it makes no sense, as I personally know at least 2 temp drivers who started the 2nd week of November last year and still got their 30 days by Jan 1st. Even WITH driving Saturday air (not sure if Sat Air can go towards your 30 days) they would not have made their 30 days (not to mention he would have had to NEVER been sent home). Essentially they both had to have their driving days in December count towards their 30 days. I've also NEVER heard of this rule. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
My second question is simple enough, can working Saturday Air go towards your 30 days qualification?
Thanks!
