Thank you, what’s the probation period on city p/d? It’s not a casual position it’s full time

In our (INDY) area its 30 days probation. It used to be from the date on the "intent to hire" letter they used to give out. But lazy management quit giving them out so we go by the first day you are paid to be there. It was nice to have a letter to point to for your seniority date but they often did back date them so that you had to work some amount of days as a casual. So I guess it has its good points and bad.
Make sure you save that first pay stub.

companies in conjunction with the failing union controlled the pensions. Blame both...
The pension (like Social Security) was built on a premise that there would always be more people putting $$$ into the fund than those taking $$ out of the fund.
The teamsters sat and watched the NMFA die a slow painful death, never got any additional members into the funds. No one is buying what they sell. They could only get new members when they were able to beat, coerce and violently force people to join their union. the teamsters never worried about 'morals' as they murdered or beat people into becoming new 'members' Now you worry about institutions having morals?????
Now that they have to compete in world on a level basis, they fail miserably.
Ask the teamster negotiators how many pensions they will be collecting....... How are those morals doing while other get their pension cut???
We all saw this coming except the leaders of the teamsters???

Heck with the amount of money that was in the cspf a few years ago it could've survived on the interest alone and with prudent measures.With that being said the fund could've set up a different investment tool like a 401k for all the extras that weren't really needed.A 401k contributed to by the employer and employee.401k match.But with Nyhan at the helm well you see what we dont have
