[QUOTE="gandydancer, post: 446267, member: 9310"] Didn't take a "deal". NM Article 22, section 4: "...Part-time employees with six (6) months or more seniority shall have the right to place their name on the list of employees waiting to be moved to a preferred job within their building. Such preferred jobs shall include, but not be limited to: Preload, Sorter, Clerical, Irregular Train, Designated Responder, Carwasher, Loader and Unloader. Employees do not have the right to select any specific unit, load or workstation unless a prior past practice has been established." So Justaperson has a right to be a sorter. But there's nothing in the contract that requires the company to train any sorter less senior than him to load. So for now he can be sent if they want to. But if he knows the Safe Work Methods and uses them they won't want him loading. Takes too much time. Gives other loaders ideas. So, use load stands. Hand to surface. Clear your pathways. Build tight walls all the way up. Lock your walls into the ceiling ribs. No bags in walls. Pretty soon your sort supes won't be able to give you away. No takers. [/QUOTE]
