[QUOTE="Themanthatdid, post: 4141542, member: 77605"] To keep this short, applied for friend/T Driver, positions filled up so got converted to a PT Local Sort Unloader. I don’t work the belt, I mainly just park the package cars in my section and fuel up trucks when needed. I also got my CDL so I typically doing shifting with trailers around the hub. The hub is small. I just finished Intergrad on the 19th, I’m literally at the bottom of the list. I’m a TCD so I will keep the pay according to the new contract if I decide to go full time. My question is, how long will it take to start my 30 days ? I don’t have to time to be waiting in line because of “seniority” plus 18 year old kids with more seniority then me getting a shot but don’t want to take the steps to become a driver, when you have a well qualified driver who pushed 80,000 pounds of Haz-Mat chemicals with a safe driving record no moving violations nor tickets. A P/T position at 13 dollars an hr is a huge PAYCUT. I’m assuming I will need another job to maintain the simple bills I do have. I’ve worked at seniority jobs but at LEAST I had a full 8 hours. I’m not being ungrateful, just frustrated because this process been nothing but jumping through hoops. [/QUOTE]
