How does the system work under the new contract for getting the 18 day, 15 day, or 7 on/7 off? Is it a seniority based bid system?
Can you get bumped off your schedule by someone senior, or once you're working one of the schedules it's yours until you want to try and change?
Where are new hires going into the mix and how are the different schedules playing out seniority wise (assuming it's seniority based)? How long should a new hire expect to stay on whichever schedule they're initially assigned and what would be a reasonable expectation time wise to move 'up' to the other 2 schedules?
Thanks for the info!
