Its hard u need to have a certain amount of hours for certain ones which is understandable but sometimes its impossible due to having kids.. or if thats not the case seems like u need to be close or friendly to certain people who are higher up..there are people who started 2 months and have moved up so quickly good for me but sometimes their rates arent there..or in my experience in IB there are people who i havent seen stow in months.. When if we do move up in areas you should stow at least twice a week.
