[QUOTE="35years, post: 4458493, member: 60822"] Our center has given 10 day qualification extensions to EVERY probationary driver for the last two years. Some make it, some don't. The 10 day extension just allows the center to have more drivers without committing to them. The ones they let go are on day 39. The ones they keep they don't inform that they made it until day 60 or so. They try to let some go past the 40 day mark (they worked over 40). One driver was already a union member (part timer). He filed a grievance when UPS told him he didn't make it on his 45th day driving. The Union fought it and he is a seniority driver as a result. If you came from off the street it is questionable that the Union would fight for you...you are not a member yet. So the extension means nothing except they needed your body 10 more days. If they are short drivers your chances are 10 times better than if they have enough. [/QUOTE]
