[QUOTE="Ya Dad, post: 3695663, member: 40478"] ------------------------------------------------------- TLDR - Top Rate Mon-Fri Air Driver, carried rate to combo inside job, didn't carry rate to Feeder job. Thoughts? ------------------------------------------------------- So I've brought this up before, except this time I actually made it through my 30 days, so now I am a Feeder driver. I was a PM Air Driver and I made it through the 2 year progression. June of 2016 I went Combo inside-inside and my rate was red-circled. I became a Feeder driver back in March, but my rate was dropped to 19.50 instead of bringing in the rate I carried in from PM air to Combo. It was about a 28% paycut. So this: [I](b) No employee shall be required to complete a full-time progression more than one (I) time even if he or she transfers between full-time jobs except as set forth in this paragraph. The sole exception is when an employee is awarded a package car or feeder driver job and has not previously held a full-time job which includes driving duties. In such event, the employee will have a break-in rate equal to the employee’s current wage rate until six (6) months from the date the employee entered the job. The employee will then go to the prevailing top rate. [B]A part-time air driver who has completed the Article 40 progression, bids a full-time inside job and then a driver job within two (2) years shall have [U]the same break-in period.[/U][/B][/I] [I][B][U][/U][/B][/I] There has been a whole conflict within this grievance process about what rate I should be making. Labor is saying that I should be at $21.00/hour because I went full time 2 years ago, and that is the rate for a Feeder driver two years into the full-time progression. My argument against that is it doesn't apply to me because of 41 2(b). I seem to fit the criteria to have my rate brought into Feeders with me, and make top rate six months from the time I started Feeders. I've talked to the Feeder DM, I've talked to a member of the labor department, union stewards, my business agent...I had them all convinced at one point until the Labor DM said it should be $21/hour, not air driving top rate, and cited Article 41 2(c). So really I just wanna know what you guys think about this. I'm pretty drained from talking to management all of the time, all of the trips I took driving down to the labor department to talk with them in person, talking to the Feeder business agent...I'm just trying to go off the contract, and it seems like everyone around me is just straight up ignoring the last sentence there from 41 2(c). Oh, and jokes are cool here, too. I could use a laugh from all of this crap I've been going through. [/QUOTE]
