[QUOTE="Dirty Savage, post: 223061, member: 10384"] 1. No OT? In a union shop? I don't think so. 2. I've worked my share of 13 hr days. On average though I do about 10 hrs per day. 3. Not at my centre. I was hired as a part-time driver. Went full-time after about 18 months. Again, those opportunities are awarded by seniority. 4. Supervisors are jackasses, yeah, but remember, you're in a UNION. 5. I don't think it is. 6. Can't answer that as I never had that experience 7. Yeah, I hurt all over. It's a very physical job. I'm only 32 but I feel ancient most days. 8. Oh noes, I'm a statistic!!!! 9. Only in the first 30 days and only then it depends on the kind of accident. I sideswiped a tire-rack in our building one day on my third week on the job, tore a big hole in the side of the truck. Got a two-day unpaid vacation. 10. Again, UNION! 11. Yeah, in addition to the physical stress there is mental stress as well as you're worrying about getting your air done on time etc. [/QUOTE]
