I am on vacation this week and have no firm plans other than tomorrow and Monday. I told my on-car that I would be in town in case something happened and they were short-staffed. I highly doubt that they would call me and will not put any plans on hold in case they do but if they call and I have nothing going on that day I would probably go in. The extra money would be nice.

Come to Feeders at CHEMA. That goes up to 25 years.Last month I watched a 15 year driver who couldn't get a single week in the summer at all. That's just messed up and should be fixed but every time it goes to a vote in our local the senior guys say we got screwed for decades by this policy so it's going to continue...

I agree that the OP just taking the time after being denied multiple times was just blatantly wrong.
As for those raving about the seniority system for vacation selection it is just plain broken in my area. At any other union shop I've worked in, the first week or two would be picked in order of seniority then continue to go around until all selections were made. In my area you can select 7 weeks at a whack so by the time you get to the bottom of the list you aren't selecting jack--you're being told the weeks you're getting.
