[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 71633, member: 1356"] I don't think dude's experience is typical, but probably happens in a few areas. In my area the average part-timer puts in at least five years or so before having any chance of going full-time and that improvement was caused by the 22/3 job creation issue two contracts ago and continued in this one rather than any company expansion or retirement turnover. As mentioned by danny the street hire every seventh slot has been being taken up by part-time management for decades now. We have had one off the street hire for a full-time driver position since the very early 1990's and the hiring ratio (inside to street) was lower then. I would certainly classify that as slim to none. When you start seasonally driving you can check the seniority lists which contractually have to be posted in an accessible viewing area somewhere in the hub or center and kept current quarterly. It lists the full-time drivers by seniority and shows both their full-time seniority and part-time seniority. Those with no part-time seniority will be the off the street hires. Check to see how many of the more contemporary ones were actually straight off the street rather than former part-time supes and you can get an accurate idea of what your chance are of going straight into full-time driving off the street in your area.
