[QUOTE="bluehdmc, post: 517911, member: 18471"] In Local 177, laid off feeder drivers are all off the street hires. They have the option of displacing junior drivers elswhere in the local. About 30-35 drivers have been laid off in Parsippany, about 10 have been working in the Meadowlands, and 1 or 2 in Edison. This goes on a week by week basis. The other option is to displace 2 part timers in the hup, working the twilight and night sorts, or they can take a layoff. I've heard about 40 package car drivers have been laid off, again it varies. They also can work in the hub. I heard they did preload. I'm gonna assume thats true because stuff I've ordered lately hasn't been scanned "out for delivery". I don't know all the details, I'm a laid off feeder driver that's been working in the Meadowlands. Things may (or may not) get better in the next month or so when the full vacation list kicks in. Supposedly some of the laid off feeder drivers without enough seniority to displace were told they'd be in the hub until the snow flew. From my own observations volume seems to be way down, and I think things are gonna stay this way till Sept. I'd say the OP has to check his Local supplement to find out about his situation. I know I've talked to some drivers elsewhere and they've said they bump back to package. They're not off the street though. [/QUOTE]
