CAN ANY UNION OFFICIAL answer this question for me? I am on a long term opt since last Dec. My office lost our AUX route last mirap session in May. Well here we are 6 months later and they are doing another one. Rumor had it that management wanted to make my route the next aux route, which if they did I completely understand that I loss my opt. Well, in their infinate wisdom, apparently they didn't want to turn my route into an aux, or they'd lose a vehicle and mangement didn't want that. But in the meantime the mirap team deamed my route as an aux and (6 monthes prior it wasn't) they added a collection route to it. BUT during the brief time it was an aux, another ptf (with inside info) zoomed in and opted on it. Can they do that? It was evaluated as a full route last april, can they (mirap team) in the course of an evaulation deem a route an aux thus changing the status right then and there? Just curious if anyone know anything out there. I'm going to call my union rep tomorrow to see if he knows anything
