[QUOTE="brett636, post: 230385, member: 249"] Same thing is occuring here in Indy. While trying to fill open package car positions here they were pulling in part-timers with 2 years company senority which until recently was unheard of. Even 2-3 years ago the wait was a good 8-12 years depending on when you started. The wait to go combo though is a minimum 6.5 years and thats if your really lucky. I should know because I am one of a handful of people in my hub to get a combo job with less than 8 years senority. Things just fell into place in my favor, and I was signing every list that went up fulling expecting to never get called. What is interesting is 2 years ago they were posting bid sheets for part-timers to go into feeders, and for a couple years before that up until last year they were posting bid sheets for full-time inside and combo workers to go feeders. Now so many package car drivers are jumping ship into feeders its hard to say if they will ever go beyond package car for feeder drivers in the foreseeable future. Its funny how fast things change.
