[QUOTE="happybob, post: 274823, member: 4724"] I applaud your decisions to stand up for what you believe is the right way to handle this. I do differ with you over dates of seniority, and maybe because in my area, NNE, we have different rules. In our area when a part timer goes full time he has a new full time seniority date, but gets full credit for time with the company for his vacation picks. We don't have temp drivers, except the vacation covers, and seasonal workers. The company must still fill all full time openings on a 4(or 5, can't remember) to 1 ratio. The parttimers, in many instances knew these rules from the time they were hired, and choose to stay part time when various full time jobs opened, for whatever reason these chose to do so and stay part time. Things in thier lives change and then they decide to go full time. Useing your choice they now get to jump ahead of full timers that have worked longer in a full time posisiton, that would be where we disagree. The great thing about this debate, is the choice to change the language you want changed is a right afforded to us under the contract bargaining process, and I do applaud your decision to fight for what you think should be done in your area. The members will get to make their choices known, either by rejecting, again, what you have already rejected before as being inadequit, or accepting the newest proposals.. Noone in another part of the country gets do decide what is in your areas best interests. Good luck with your upcoming vote, and I will congratulate all the members in your area for keeping after the union to get whats in your best interests put into the contract. [/QUOTE]
