[QUOTE="thefuzzisreal, post: 4617350, member: 82733"] Yeah it does say that under 4.3. What management is trying to tell me is that she’s been in that position for longer than 6 months so I can’t take her off the position. The only thing is that she got the job because she was pregnant. So I talk to my manager and he says that’s not why she got the position. When I go around asking everyone and they say it’s because she was pregnant. So he’s already lying and one thing I left out was that a shop steward was holding the position once she went on maternity leave for three months. I tried to get the position from him as well since he has lower seniority than me. But he is known for helping management and management allowing him to blow off work and walk around on “official union business”. So him being the senior shop steward he advised me that my grievance would not go through and that he would not file it for me. What a ducking coincidence ain’t it? Long story short they put up a bid for the job after threatening to right a grievance but only as a “backup” in their terms but I have told my union agent that no list was ever done before that, many others as well, I’m not the only person mad at this situation. I of course won that bid and I am trained and everything. Now the only thing left is my union agent to force the rules on my manager to put me in the position fully. [/QUOTE]
