[QUOTE="ManInBrown, post: 1108804, member: 46614"] Just applied online for a location in Williston ND. Luckily my personal situation allows me to just pick up and go wherever I have to. I literally will go anywhere I have to, to land a gig. I dont care if its ND. Is the pay the same across the country? Top pay 3 years after seniority for drivers. 32 and hour or whatever you guys are up to now? Would my seniority start right away if I was hired off the street in one of these undesirable locations? As far as the possible pending strike is concerned. Would I be better off waiting to see what happens with that first before I quit where I am and take the leap. I have never been in a union before. If I was lucky enough to land one of these gigs in the next few months and was hired, I would assume I start paying dues immediately and am union right away? if there is a strike do I have a target on my back since I am new with the company and will that possibly jeopardize my job. Also I have heard of the possible two tier wage progression system. I obviously would want to get my foot in the door before that cut off date. I'm not going to say the money is the entire reason for looking to make the switch. But its a big part. I want to be paid fairly for a hard days work. And that doesnt exist anymore at FredEx.
