[QUOTE="cachsux, post: 862873, member: 5529"] Did I or the company or the union prevent him from bidding, having a clean driving record, or any other excuse he had? No. He had the opportunity to exercise his seniority ahead of me but for whatever reason did not. And it`s not like it was a surprise either. The bidders know far in advance when we were moving up. When it was my place in line I did. He will get to pick better vacations and has more protection from a layoff per his ft seniority. I get to pick my start time and job based on feeder seniority. My seniority date is not fake. It`s the date that I had the seniority to advance from package to feeder just like any one else. The day before that some one with higher seniority chose not to. Is his date of making, in my opinion, a poor choice fake? You think,what, that I should put in 16 years in feeder doing the crap start times until I worked my way up the board until I can get what I want only so someone who finally makes up his mind can just walk in and be at the top of the board? Sorry, don`t think so. And we do have some that grumble at their place on the board. And we ask them, why didn`t you come in earlier? And they all look at their shoes and make up an excuse and I haven`t heard one yet that I sympathized with. As I said, sucks for him. [/QUOTE]
