22.4 drive not allowed to bid

[UPS Milwaukee]

Just started as a 22.4 driver. 9 days left in my progression. Scratching everyday except Saturdays. Filled out my union application today. The steward said the 22.4s can't bid on rpcd routes. That I have to put some sort of transfer request in. Is that even right. Have there been 22.4s that won bids? Not the 22.3 combo drivers but actual 22.4.

Okay in that case he cannot bid on a route because he is not in the union

Local 344. Wisconsin.
It's wierd because the steward confirmed that I would have more seniority then all the part timers. But can't bid on any rpcd routes.

If you’ve still got 9 days in your 30, you can’t bid. As others have stated, you are not yet in the union. Not sure how you’d have any more seniority than anyone who came in the door before you.

I know I can't bid until I make seniority. They are saying even then I can not bid once I make seniority that I have to request some sort of transfer.

From what I understand is as a FT employee I would have more seniority then any PT member. Once I pass progression of course.

Looks like you have to work for 1 year before you can transfer classifications. Only RPCDs can bid on open routes. Until you become a RPCD you can not bid.

But isn't there some loophole that they cannot stop you from advancing forward?

Never heard of anything like that. You'd have to give me a example of what you mean.

Say if the minimum requirement for a bid was one year but a better higher paying job came up before you had one year they could not stop you from signing that bid

Not that I'm aware of. Might be a supplemental thing where you are.
