[QUOTE="bubsdad, post: 516659, member: 21830"] This is the way it works here: At the time of layoff you have 3 options. Take two part time jobs, One part time job or take the layoff. The contract says that you can take the job of any part timer provided you have more total company seniority. The JAC ruled that you can only bump the least senior part timer. After working for thirty days in a ninety day period you can bump the least senior full time position. You will have thirty calendar days to qualify for that position. Locally, the company and the union were ill prepared for the layoffs. There were alot of questions asked when the first group was laid off,(Jan 5th) that are just now being addressed. I understand that the company hasn't gone through this situation before but the union has. Read your contract and talk to your stewards and BA. You also have the option of bumping into any hub/center in your local's jurisdiction but if you do that you may be stuck there until work is restored at your home domicile. You also have to be qualified for the job that you would be bumping into. We currently have 38 feeder drivers laid off and I was in the first group and have been trying to work out alot of these problems. At this point I would think you'll be going back to your feeder job within a couple weeks. Vacations will be kicking in soon. And as if you haven't heard this before, "Hang in there"!! [/QUOTE]
