The work schedule is amazing, takes a few months to get up there, but it works for a lot of us. Having weekends off and time with family is very important to me. The pay and every year raise is awesome! It’s a dangerous job and knowing we’re paid enough is everything we need.
Monday through Friday schedule is really nice. No shift work is much easier on home life and body. No night shift for me is a blessing. Major holidays off allows more family time.
Svantaggi
As a share time employee it would be nice to have schedules sooner then Friday afternoon proceeding the next workweek.
Not having any seniority for available work days is not a plus. Someone with 5 years gets the same number of work days as someone with 1 year. Union contract has nothing identifying the share timers position or rights. Even though I’m paying union dues. Full time employees hold position to 70 plus. No opportunity for advancement.
