[QUOTE="thecamel, post: 864451, member: 33455"] Jones, I am in the Atlantic Area and my route is now cut four days a week. I am told that I fall into the art. 48 layoff language and that if I want to work then I can only bump the junior driver in our building. Management is telling me that this is a "gentlemans" agreement that has been practice, but we have never continually cut bid routes on a daily basis before. This is no longer satisfactory as I cannot believe that with over 20 years of seniority I should be having to scrounge for work daily behind drivers with 5 years or fewer seniority. It has been expressed to me by my on car and manager that art. 48 sect. 6 does not apply because the cut is not permanent. I am currently trying to work this through my steward, ba, mgmt team, and even the local pres. Any addiitional insight that you can offer would be appreciated. Thanks! BTW: I have been lurking on the bc since the 97 strike and have found the many topics here to be insightful as well as entertaining. Thanks to all:happy2: [/QUOTE]
