[QUOTE="Committed Lurker, post: 179667, member: 5874"] As a newhire with no union protection or seniority rights, depending on the type of supervisor you have, I would recommend showing up for the shift about half an hour prior and see whether or not he/she'll keep you around for the shift and provide work. When I was loading in the hub, my sups hardly ever went by seniority when we had one of those days where volume was going to be light enough to necessitate one (or two) less people.....instead it went by whoever showed up first. The last person (or two) to show up was sent home. I know stuff of the sort is to go by seniority, but keep in mind my shift lacks a steward. Of course none of that has been happening now given that my belt is short-staffed as it is. If the above doesn't work, you might want to take the advice of some of the other upstream posters.
