FT Driver to AIR Driver

[PT Car Washer]

i'm still considering of going back to school as well. What's 22.3 ?

Art 22.3 are 2 PT jobs combined to make one FT job. Either high seniority good jobs or 2 really lousy loading jobs with an hour and a half break. Pay less then FT and sometimes less then PT jobs.

Basically FT inside jobs. Less money, less stress.

Not entirely true there are 22.3 jobs that are not inside jobs. Did you for get about Air drivers.

 

[UPSGUY72]

All the air driver jobs I know of are PT or Art 22.3

You have little to no chance of getting a 22.3 job since you have no seniority (ie you are on the bottom of the list ).

The vast majority are inside/inside jobs, the other air driver/inside jobs.

Had an Art 22.3 bid sheet up last week. Loading on midnight and loading on preload. Winner was a 1998 seniority date.

Hello everyone
I was wondering if any one knows about switching from FT Driver to Air Driver and what's the procerdure?

Thanks

After reading the whole thread, in your case it isn't going to happen.

Good luck.

PT unloader on twi. I guess FT drivers are out of the classification and not eligible.

You can probably get the air job IN 20 YEARS lol.

In 20 years he can most likely get a feeder bid.

FT air driver are 22.3 and they don't work on the inside...

 

[PT Car Washer]

FT air driver are 22.3 and they don't work on the inside...

Of course you are correct. We do not have FT air drivers only Art 22.3, which is what I meant by FT.

 

[PT Car Washer]

I am confused now. How can you be an Art 22.3 and not work inside?

 

[upschuck]

Our FT Air Drivers work either EAM/Day sort or Drop box/Midnight

 

[PT Car Washer]

We had 2 combos that worked the day sort and did PM letter box pick ups. When the day sort went to a Sunday thru Thursday schedule UPS dropped one and the other agreed to not grieve his lost of a 40 hour week. Same with midnight. Works Sunday thru Thursday. Almost all or our Art. 22.3 work midnight and the preload with an hour and a half or more break.

UPS dropped one and the other agreed to not grieve his lost of a 40 hour week.

I wonder if there remains 20000 22.3 jobs still or if that number has been whittled down. Did they make another 22.3 job in your building, or did they "move" it to another?

 

[PT Car Washer]

Just put up a bid for 2 midnight/ preload jobs last week. To replace who knows how many. Definitely have lost jobs here.

 

[upschuck]

I hope someone is keeping their eye on this at the international, and then confirmed by the locals, or the 2300 new ones may be just to replace the ones that we have lost.

WE have 22.3 jobs that are inside/inside , in/out , out/in .
The Chelmsford building is loaded with 22.3's in every combination one can think of .
I've worked Customer Counter / carwash , CC/pm air (tues-sat) , CC/ pm air ( Mon-Fri) , Car wash/ preload , CC/inside WAD , CC/Twilight , now going back to Carwash/preload .
I'm sick of CC and all the stress that goes with it .
Pay is about $27/hr , with little to no ot .

I am an Article 40 Combo Driver. I am not a 22.3. I got this position prior to the 97 contract that introduced 22.3 jobs. I do a PM air route and work the night sort. with no gaps. For about 10 years I drove air only because I had an early enough start to get in 8 hours before night sort. I think there is about 4 or 5 Article 40 employees left in my building and quite a few 22.3's.
