[QUOTE="Ashell, post: 1452365, member: 23726"] You can look at my post history and see I tried to go driving. First they gave me a trainer who just sat there and didn't really train me. Then they complained about how I was going slow. Part of the reason I was slow was because I would spend about 20 minutes trying to figure out how to enter things into the diad like unscheduled picked ups and other oddball stuff. My trainer either didn't know or acted like she didn't know. Then tried to lay me off for a day. In some regions this is allowed, X days out o Y days. But the contract just changed and this language is not in our rider that I know of. I immediately talked to the steward about it, and he just blew it all off saying they can do what they want. I had bid on fulltime driver. I have and email saying I was going to class for FT drive. After I got paid, the rate was at 28.05, which is not FT driver. So yes I tried to go driver. But to me it was obvious as hell they were not going to let a person like me get a good paying job like FT driver. No my job is to pick up their scraps. Something to be bitter about? Stuff like this happens all the time. And the union just lets it. People that have been here less than a year are FT driver now and I have been here busting my ass for much longer than that. [/QUOTE]
