Outta, do not misunderstand please. You have absolutely earned the right to take days off. I am not whining about that at all. It should be done by seniority, of course. Of course I won't get that rte that you just retired from but I may get the rte from the driver that took over your bid that you just retired from. Don't bitch about me wanting a rte. It's called attrition and it is what makes the world go round.
What I am bitching about is the 1 or 2 drivers that will take every day of the week off for weeks on end. And they do. You are comparing apples and oranges/
Not really directing my full reply to you only. And I am definitely not "bitching" about you wanting a route. I mean who doesn't? I will say it's not really up to you to decide if someone should retire or not. Your opinion on that does seem to lean towards the entitlement part of my thread. Kind like you've had your time now get out of the way so I can get mine.
I am missing the apples/oranges part that you speak of. I know what you mean about the same drivers taking off week after week. They have EARNED the right to do so. I take them as often as I can. Sometimes several times a week for several weeks in a row. I don't begrudge your right to vent. I see where you are coming from. Because I have been where you are. But you have not been where I am now. When you get here you will understand.
Please do not take my comments/opinions as being disrespectful. I was only trying to make a point from the other side of the seniority issue.
