[QUOTE="804brown, post: 1163124, member: 29553"] I believe you need 25 full time years to get the increase. As for the VCD, it is a net gain of $21/hr. Without this deal, that part timer stays a part timer and will NOT get the $21/hr working the summer as a driver. As I wrote in an earlier post, the ONLY legitimate beef against the VCD idea is by low seniority cover drivers with less than 10 years. These drivers fear some these VCDs actually BECOMING full time drivers with more seniority than them and therefore fear once again being laid off or sent to other buildings, etc. I tried explaining it to some that that is a problem UNDER THE CURRENT CONTRACT where any part timer on the list to go driving might have more seniority than some cover drivers. It is the right of EVERY part timer to go full time IF THEY SO WISH.But at least this driver has a legitimate beef while some out there lie and make stuff up. [/QUOTE]
