A little piece of advice for the new Men and Women be Humble..nobody likes a "know it all". Dont make a name for yourself already.

only shop stewards and the clerks can touch the operationa board not supervisors.

Shop stewards look out for you. The other day I was assigned to Supt. Clerk the next day...so I come in the next day and the shop steward calls me to ask me if I turned down collection or requested to be a shop steward. The reason he asked was because an out of towner made truck before I did....so 20 minutes before the 6-2 shift started he put me on collection and the out of town guy as the supt. clerk.

what do you guys mean by an "out of towner"?

well remember an FY is different from an calender year. There many of been a few classes in the spring and early summer of 2004 but that would fall under Fiscal Year 03.

[Epyon7280]

i know in 2003 calander year not fiscal we hired over 1000 new sanitation workers and re hired 500 sanitation workers that were laid off due to the economy.
