Okay so with all this said. Can they jump the senority list and hire a preloader while counting that as an outside hire? It sounds like this is a common practice in some regard. Tears makes it seem like managment can hire whoever they like but i can not believe that because there is a process in place.

No , you are a union worker and have to follow the union way to do it

If you trust your sups then quit and be a off the street hire or become a sup and go that way

I've known many district managers who preferred to offer the "outside hire" to PT supervisors. SO in most cases this works. It's not like the hard work will come as a shock, like it would with a true off the street hire.

Here's the thing though - with a 6:1 ratio, that ONE hire, mgmt can ABSOLUTELY hire whomever they want, because that's what the contract says.

So if you become a PT supervisor, and to use the term in another thread, then become a rooster about it, you'll be a PT sup forever. If you're a good PT sup, they'll take care of you 99% of the time, unless you have a management team that doesn't like you.

So, if you want to go the sure way, just put your name on the bid sheet and wait.

Again, everywhere is different. I'm saying I've never seen it in my building. PT sup is either a road to nowhere, or if they like you a road to FT sup. Never seen it be a road to FT driving
Yeah he was the first supervisor to be the 6th man in over 30 years at our center. It shocked everyone.

Then I have no idea why you started this thread. Just get on the list, like everyone else who wants to go driving.

Why would you think you would be able to just cut in line? most of the people with more seniority than you are waiting for the same full time driving spot you are. That 6 to 1 off the street hire is not for you. You are already in line to be one of the 6. Just put your time in. You'll get to this crappy job soon enough.

If you want to cut lines so bad, go to Disney and use your Fastpass

They always seem to tell new people what they think you want to hear so you will bust your :censored2: even harder. Just show up on time everyday do what's asked of you and you will get that call to go driver soon enough.

In my experience the pt sup who wants that driving job is strung along and promised over and over that they will get a shot.. but nothing ever happens. Also the few that have got a driving gig never went back to Mgt after the move... none.
