Wow we dont get paid and it wasnt an option to work thats just plain wrong this company just lost all cool points for that
Get ready for a nude awakening.
Why should you fall under the old contract ?Hello,
I'm confused also, I started work as a loader on July 27th 2008 and I didn't get paid the holidays either. I keep getting mixed responses from supervisors and employees. Is there anyone that was hired in July and was paid for Thanksgiving? I keep being told by one supervisor to read my Teamsters book but the only one I have is for the new contract. I should fall under the old contract but unable to get any straight answers. If someone could help me with this I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Why should you fall under the old contract ?
That contract died in Dec 2007, months before you started.
If you don't want the new contract book send it to me, I still looking for one.

Were you hired as permanent in July or as seasonal? That could be the difference?
Seasonals in July? Under what Rider?
Thanks for all the responses, to clarify my start date it was July 28th and it was permanent hire. I received all my medical/dental benefits 60 days after my start date. Which let me say are the best benefits ever. I was just asking because every time someone quotes from the contract they say "new hires after August 1st 2008" I was hired as a permanent employee before August 1st. I guess I can look for my shop steward and ask him. Just was wondering what you guys thought before I go see the steward. Thanks again everyone
