[QUOTE="pretender, post: 1130488, member: 1493"] I am not so sure that the strike in '97 was over part timers rights. However, assuming it was, it puts to lie the claim that full timers have sold out the PTers. I can't help but wonder if the creation of 22.3 jobs, has actually slowed the progression to driving, through unintended consequences... When I was part time, there was no provision in the contract to go into driving. If you did a good job, you might have only waited 6 months. If you were a slacker, you would never be asked. Even after the article was negotiated, it was much stricter than the current 6/1 rate (either 1/1 or 2/1--I can't recall). There was no pension or tuition assistance for part timers either. So, it wasn't QUITE as easy as it is sometimes portrayed. [/QUOTE]
