[QUOTE="bakagigee, post: 1009190, member: 42772"] My issue is that I wouldn't be grieving for hours that I refused to work as a hazmat responder, or hours that they were working as a hazmat responder and I wasn't. The point is that they are going to be working as a preloader 99.9% of the time and those are the hours that I would be grieving. Add to this issue that they had someone who was willing to take the position all summer long but they waited and waited and by the time they offered it, the dates for the training conflicted with that seniority person's schedule, so now they can't do the training and become a responder so they are going to train someone below me and bump me out instead! That just seems fishy to me. If we have a higher seniority person who is willing to do the position, but the training dates conflict it would seem to me that they would need to wait for another training. They want me to do the position because they know I would do it better than anyone else, and they are trying to force me into it. However, if you were in my sort and you knew how management abused people/policies you would want as little responsibility as possible. Also, shouldn't they have to post a bid sheet for this position? No such sheet has ever been posted, and this has all been done via word-of-mouth. [/QUOTE]
