[QUOTE="Backlasher, post: 858433, member: 6276"] They should pay insiders more then outsiders as seasonal drivers. I've been air driven for 5 yrs and going on 2 as a seasonal. Outsiders with no real experience, low performance, and no area knowledge drowning on our routes are making the same as me. What's up with that union??? What about the fact that I'm also a single day vacation cover driver but they only use me as seasonal so I don't get the higher pay on my 2nd yr. I asked my union if they can use me as seasonal when I'm already a single day vaca cover driver. Response was sign seasonal if you want to work full time this summer. Whats up with that, so really the single day vaca. is an unused title with no real use. It has a higher pay scale after 900 hrs and in 2nd yr., ($18.45), but if they can get away with using me as seasonal then that title is a false promise. This issue needs attention. Even if they can use me as seasonal instead, I feel that with my experience and being a driver already I should in my 2nd yr. as seasonal get some progression and make more then an off the street temp who will perform poorly and probably not b back. Doesn't matter anyway cause maybe by next contract I won't b seasonal, hopefully. The way it is now as summer and peak goes, I'll b making [B][U]same rate[/U][/B] not even a cola gain till new 2013 contract. Even if it wont aply to me in 2013 it should still b changed for our future insiders that drive seasonal. I make more as an air driver but would rather b full time driven cause I hate waking up at 4A.M. and getting stuck with managers having no plan and clueless on how to distribute volumn of E.A.M.s among us. I also like haveing a real weekend and not waking up before the birds on SATURDAY morning. Plus I like the experience. I just feel like we should have better compensation as insiders doing this especially if we come back for peak and all following years as seasonal. Maybe a different classification for us insiders that are already driven. If I didn't sign seasonal then some other outsider would just b doing it. [/QUOTE]
