Synopsis Grievant and another regular aide applied for a secretarial position. Grievant had a break in her employment and her first period of employment was not counted. The case holds the provision that seniority means the date one enters the assigned duties is clear and ambiguous and will be applied and not construed would be applied. Since the position was filled based on seniority and was the issue argued, instatement was granted based upon her seniority but since back pay was not requested it was not awarded.
