Where did you see an acceptance letter before yesterday evening? I've been checking every day this week 4 & 5 times a day & it was never there until last evening. I was told that the only changes that were made was that you would go up on the list not down, did someone lie again?

The large number of bids, and the lack of people reading directions, caused the confusing situation. Bidding Notes: Your bid is alive for 30 days on the job(s) that you bid on. If you bid on multiple jobs and didn't prioritize your selections you will go on the first classification that's open. As it was explained to me through Herb Hibbs, if you didn't prioritize your selections as it says to do so on the bidding webpage, and on the weekly updates you would simply get the first classification that was open to your seniority that you bid on. At the bid meeting between salary and union they went down the list as it was laid out on the bidding machines, if somone didn't prioritize, yet had the seniority for the bid, they got it and all of the other bids by that person were moot. This makes sense to me, if someone bids on a job and they have the seniority... they wanted it enough to bid on it, they get it, you don't get to pick one later. Some people weren't on the 1st weeks acceptance letter because they're known classification conditions hadn't changed. ex. If "Bob" an assembler, bid on one of the TEN(?) inspectors jobs and was the ELEVENTH bidder during the first week, and "Alice" one of the current inspectors bid out creating an ELEVENTH position Bob is the next highest bidder, and Bob would be an inspector, (filling Alice's spot) because Bob's bid was still "alive" he filled the ELEVENTH inspector job. (This happens in multiple bid situations and sometimes isn't picked up until the 2nd week.) The reason for the revisions to the acceptance letter.. Bob being the resourceful type, bids during the 2nd week before he or anyone realized that he was already an inspector from the previous weeks bidding. He and all parties involved assume that he is available and has the seniority for a 3rd shift line feeder job. From this exchange Bob's name goes on the 2nd weeks acceptance letter. This is an error, Bob is an inspector now and his bid is moot and the next highest seniority person for the 3rd shift line feeder job "Steve" needs to be added to the acceptance letter as a line feeder, and not as a forklift driver (Steve's 2nd choice). Now multiply Bob's experience by about 60 people, compound that with people bidding to jobs which they didn't have qualifications for (medical issues, lack of computer skills, hearing issues, past disqualifications etc.) Subtract the jobs that were overbid. (Where salary's total needs were less than presumed.) I'm guessing that there will be several revisions due to the massive overload of information, be patient, and observant.
