[QUOTE="upser2020, post: 5218320, member: 88462"] From what I've seen the real(probably only) benefit to taking a promotion to pt sup is you want to get either a full time sup and eventually manager position or a specialist. Pt sups make a little more per hour(tho that could change if they bring back the mra) but their overtime doesn't kick in until 8 hours a day or 40 a week. They are guaranteed 27.5 hours a week but often outside of peak capped at 40 vs hourlies are sometimes begged to work triples. On paper pt sups aren't supposed to do union work but in practice you often work as much if not more that your hourly workers. You are also accountable for more and as has been mentioned do not have the same protections as being a union member. Having said that the one thing is that in management you do in theory have a lot more opportunities and a potential to make more(as I understand it ft sups base salary is in the 60k range and managers are just shy of 100) and you can go higher than that vs I don't think as an hourly even a feeder you would do much better than 100k(which is still good). I know from experience what is expected from pt sups and am glad I am not(officially) one. If I had a clear and quick path to being a full time sup that might be a different story but even as just a pt hourly I made 55k last year. [/QUOTE]
