[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 2139871, member: 12570"] I took it, worked it for 4 days, decided that it wasn't for me and self disqualified on Friday. Thankfully no full timers had bid on the route that I had vacated and our BA and Labor Manager agreed to let me go back on my route on Monday. Of course, I can't bid on any job outside of my classification for two years. I only have two years left so I guess I will be retiring as a driver. The one thing I did notice right away is how quickly the full timers tend to forget about you when you work on the inside. I guess I was guilty of doing the same but it kinda hurt. I have a new found respect for how hard the "insiders" work. I busted my ass for 4 hours working in the "cage" before going up to the "tower" to process the internationals. I was dead tired by the time I got home. I think they should let anyone who is thinking about bidding on a new run or new job shadow the person currently running that area or doing that job for a day to see what they are signing up for. The combo job was NOT what I thought it was going to be and the schedule (1-9:45 pm) sucked. [/QUOTE]
