Point is..... Based on past patterns this would be an unfortunate but very possible outcome. Actually hoping for more stability. Saw many situations where they built up a base and shortly afterwards, displaced from it. Causing pain for all involved

Did you read the vacancy bid? You cannot be displaced out of one.

Did you inadvertently have a bid in for something else?

Unless you want to move make sure you don't have a bid in at all. I've heard of guys putting in vacancy bids "just in case." Mistake.

Any SFO commuters care to weigh in on current ease of commute? I'm a DC bus guy looking to move to SFO for better seniority. I commute out of DFW. Thanks!

Anybody know if the contract stipulates penalties for taking too long to move someone after an award?

Got a lateral on the last bid but manpower still hasn't moved me. Buddy of mine said he thought you're treated as 24/7 TDY a while after your effective date, but I can't find anything in the contract.

Just joking, and nothing at you personally.

I am hoping for more stability too. Also, hoping for a good CEO. And a good contract. LOL.

In 20 years, I have had about 6 of "stability", 3 years of good CEO, and about 4.5 of good contract. Unfortunately, the opposite side of that trade means I have had far more bad than good.

I don't think 6 years of stability can be counted as stability.
