[QUOTE="542thruNthru, post: 4843459, member: 48491"] Congratulations on the weight lose. Stop trying to be perfect and just do the job the best you can in the time you have. You do not get paid earlier than your start time unless management starts you earlier. Staggered start times are normal. Find out your exact start time and then be at your work area at that time to clock in. If they are making you show up early and not paying you then inform a steward and then file a Article 17 grievance "paid for time". Weekly but the first check is after two weeks. Since you just started just do as your told and show up when they say till you pass probation. Don't rock the boat until then. You can sometimes double shift but that's if it's available and if you have seniority. Best bet is to get a side job. Do what she says. You're still in probation and it doesn't matter what the driver's want. They are not your manager or sup. Again this is something you can change later but for now work as directed "WAD" Its because you're doing a good job but you'll run into whiney driver's soon enough. The old has beens are the worst. ;) Teamwork is a word management likes to use. This is a job not a sport. Do your best and if you like help out others when or if you have time. You're last to leave because you're new with no seniority and you probably make the least. Because they are idiots. Don't start troubling yourself with what others do. There will be plenty of time for that if you pass probation. This would depend on your area. Find your shop steward and ask these questions. Also ask for a contract and the locals phone number. Everything is by seniority. Feeder is some areas is quick in others like mine takes 20 years. Someone that skips lunches/breaks and works unsafe to get of early or please the bosses. Don't worry about it till you become a driver. Yes you should join the union. Don't be a scab. Just do your best. Speed will come as you go. Speak with your co workers if you have any question. No problem. Good luck and I hope you make it. Also join the union once you pass probation. I'd hate to think I wasted my time helping out a scab. [/QUOTE]
