[QUOTE="ScottP, post: 271307, member: 12481"] As far as I know management can't "cancel" a 22.3 job. These jobs all have a number with them the same as your social security number. Now maybe they can pull a "not enough volume to fill the hours" but even then I thought that once you gained seniority as a full time employee you are guaranteed your full time hours. We had this issue go down at my hub. An employee who took a certain combo job pretty much never did the two jobs that were on the bid. He ended up as an 8 hour hazardous responder. Now a friend of mine decided, because of a major start time change, to bump this individual. He was told the job no longer existed. Thus the argument began about how the jobs all have numbers and can't be simply erased from existence. Long story short the company knew they were wrong and "worked out" a solution for my friend. He is doing the job as it is written. I have a combo job and would like to think that I have always given the company at least an honest days work for an honest days pay. I see what you guys are talking about in my hub but not to the extent at which some are making it out to be in their area. We have a pretty strict attendance policy (meaning it's actually enforced) for our 22.3 people. I would like to think that we will get more jobs in the future for the people who do want to work. I would like to be an optimist and think that full time people would have a good reason to show up for work everyday and make an accounting for themselves. I know that I can't afford to miss even one day if it's not a paid day off. But alas there are and will always be those who spoil it for everyone. Funny how such a small amount of poison can destroy the entire crop. [/QUOTE]
