[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 713443, member: 198"] I transferred. Transferring shouldn't be a big deal at UPS but for some reason it is. I like FedEx's transfer policy. Company seniority goes with them when they transfer. We had a FedEx driver transfer in as a part-timer at the local FedEx station and she ended up going full-time soon after once there was an opening. So yeah....a part-timer that was already at that station before her, but with less company seniority, was probably pissed but company seniority rules instead of building seniority so there was nothing they could do. I wish it was like that at UPS. That situation (believe it or not) doesn't happen that often though. I talked to a FedEx supervisor one day at a drop box and he said their transfer policy seemed to work fine for them. He was shocked when I told him how transferring at UPS was such a pain in the you know what. I'm glad I did it though. It just sucks being so far down on the seniority list from people that started working at UPS after me. In some cases YEARS after me. Many people believe that building seniority should prevail but I don't see how letting a less experienced employee move up the latter over a more seasoned employee could make any sense to anyone but oh well. The transfer policy at FedEx seems better to me but not enough for me to jump ship and start wearing purple. NO WAY. [/QUOTE]
