Classification Package car Driver vs Car Washer...seniority

[cosmo1]

We had a car washer old enough to retire?!?!? Was it Austin?

I was trying to think of who might have retired from car-wash up here (the real Central PA, not Southcentral).

The way he talked it sounded like he was HARPA.

From the looks of the trucks a car washer only works maybe twice a month----if even that.

Not the point of this thread but thanks for playing.

To the OP---sign the bid.

I was kinda, mostly busting your butt about HARPA being Central PA.

You should know better.

I was thinking so but wasn't sure in this instance. I always considered State College as the center of the state. Harrisburg is more south central in reality.

This is what I'm seeing the word QUALIFIED is used loosely:


(b) Bidding on Vacancies and New Jobs - Full Time Employees: 1. During the year between the posting of the schedule, employees in the order of their seniority and provided they are qualified, shall have the right to bid on starting times in their own or other classifications.

How do they consider you qualified if you've never done the job?

Qualified means you meet the minimum requirements for the job. For example, to qualify for a FT driver bid, you have to hold the proper license and have a clean driving record for x number of years.

I should of said, do you really need to qualify for a car wash job. You are correct about having to meet the requirements. The ability to pass a dot physical to drive the package cars,etc. An existing employee with this many years of service will win the bid, hands down.
