[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 773606, member: 18708"] I'm going to guess you' re new or newer, so times have changed. Less people retiring, and more want FT jobs. The wait was typically 3-5 years for a hub or driving FT job that I have seen. Just my opinion, goto your local union hall or talk to a rep, get a hub PT seniority liist. (all shifts) You should then be able to get an idea. If there's 50 PT above you in seniority, you can get a range of about 10-20 PT's ahead of you that would also be interested. The ratio was probably lower back in the day, however with layoffs and economy it would (I assume ) have grown. Also, many people hired recently also want to go FT so you may actually end up waiting longer than 3-5 years. Your milage will vary but with a few questions towards your union reps, and number guesses, you should have an idea. For me (ENE, now NE) it was 5 years to go FT as a 22.3. I had the opportunity to go sooner as a FT driver (04-05) but was already working FT in I.T. and passed it up. [/QUOTE]
