They do it all the time. Here around peak they don’t let anyone go. I had my Feeder seniority date moved up 7 months because I was supposed to come at peak and they held me till the following summer. Happens all the time. As long as they re not calling someone else up with less seniority instead of you, nothing you can do.
They did that even when you got your CLP that expires after 150 days? Did you have to get the CLP again?
No. The way it works here is, you go by yourself to DMV and obtain your CLP. That’s just passing tests on the computer at DMV. Then once you have that they send us to an outside school. The school trains us and takes us to get our CDL. You pass the driving test and obtain CDL and then let HR know you’re all set. Then you are slotted on the list and they call you when it’s your turn.
Not here. Happens all the time. I would say more then half of our package to feeder drivers get their feeder seniority changed once they are in feeders because package wouldn’t let us go when it was our turn.
Sounds like a weak local....
All schooling here is done in house. You get your learners permit from the DMV by taking the tests on computer then do a week of school at our Hialeah hub, then a week of "production training"where you do actual runs with an on-road and if you pass that you go back to the hub for your driving test which is done by our feeder manager qualified by the state to do testing then if you pass you get a certification to take to the DMV for your CDL.
Pretty similar here.
In house training here, once you pass your two weeks and get your CDL you're in. I passed my driving test on a Friday, went to DMV that afternoon and got my CDL, started feeders on Monday.
Won the bid.
They tried that to a guy here. He just started eating like crazy. Balooned up to the point his knees blew out that peak and couldnt work anymore. They made him an inside job.
