:UPDATE:
Thank you for the responses folks. I appreciate taking the time to give advice and how to approach the situation.
It appears that, as par for the course, management tried to pull a fast one.
There were two 22.3 jobs that were abandoned - one retiree, one move.
Management felt it was necessary to ELIMINATE one, so they combined one half of each and made ONE job out of TWO.
The bid was taken down in 48 hours because our local was on top of the situation ( apparently, so says one of our stewards)
So in the end, hopefully there will be a couple jobs up on the board in coming months. Not at all counting on it, though. I would imagine these jobs are gone and never to be seen again....
The representation up this way seems to be lacking inside the hub and I would imagine it's all talk and they'll still give way to whatever UPS wants.
