[QUOTE="Drink Craft Beer, post: 6163524, member: 10802"] It was confirmed about 3wks ago that the hub is definitely closing. Routes are being relocated to 3 different buildings. I've been working preload for over 20yrs and this is what pisses me off about the move. We've been told that we can't bump anyone in the other building who has less seniority who do jobs the same as I ir others do right now. One guy on my shift been there over 25yrs and his current job is scanning packages/puts PAL labels on packages. How is it he can't bump someone who does the same job but has less seniority?? We were told that seniority will only play a part when it comes to bidding on a job if it arises and when it comes to choosing vacation weeks. There's nothing in the contract that I'm aware of stating that's how the process will go down when moving to a different building (not by choice) Union rep says that's how it's been done across the country when buildings close. We'll, just because that's how it's been done doesn't make it right. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. [/QUOTE]
