[QUOTE="Asskicker, post: 1136510, member: 45097"] Nice comeback there Stewie. I don't see you posting anything helpful to anyone. All you do is come on here and criticize people for their posts. I'm glad you have things all figured out and your life will just be smooth sailing at good old Big Brown. I never said if I was full time or part time, and I don't see why that should matter. I don't understand full timers attitude toward part time employees. In many cases they work harder then full timers. Talk about whiners. I work too many hours....boo hoo.....I can't work twelve hours...boo hoo. I would work twelve hours anytime I could get them while I am still capable of doing so. Many part timers have two or three jobs and are driving from one to another. You are a Steward? I feel sorry for people having to go to you for help. Nice attitude. You can't win an argument so you go on here and attack my reputation. OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I really don't care what some faceless chicken thinks about me. You don't know a thing about me yet you find it necessary to attack me and my reputation. Go ahead if that makes you feel better about yourself. Now back to some issues that other more mature people are considering before a contract vote. To answer your question Laffter....this has been in the Central Region Supplement, but in my building part time was part time. If you went out as a helper you got overtime after five hours....Period. It doesn't matter what kind of work it was. In the contract a Part timer gets time and a half after five hours.
