[QUOTE="JonFrum, post: 378294"] Sooner or later someone will file a grievance to make your job a regular full-time job to be bid upon by full-timers. Any job in existance over 30 days is grievable. In the Good Old Days (before Hoffa) part-timers could work long hours and make a career of it. But the Teamsters gave that away. Now, in my building, we have part-timers with 20 and 25 years seniority that only get three-and-a-half hours a night. And never over five hours, unless visitors are coming the next day. The one exception is Hazmat, because it's a nasty job, and because it requires so much training, certification, and is so regulated by the government. [ Have you considered the possibility that a lifetime of dealing with hazardous chemicals may lead to your offspring being born with extra fingers and toes? ] [/QUOTE]
