[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1338879, member: 198"] So apparently virtually every hub in America is short on feeders. Something like your suggestion might be attempted in my local. The main hub (Whites Creek in Nashville) is about to dip into the part-time pool to fill feeder openings and the next move after that is rumored to be to allow extended centers to bid on them. I've heard this from more than a few sources in that hub and someone from there on this site. They are subcontracting so why not let extended centers in this time? I have no idea when or how they'll do this though. Three from each center or just combine all the extended centers into one list and go by seniority? There is something like 10 buildings in our local outside of Whites Creek so I'm hoping the long commute that would be required for some of them will weed out many of the potential candidates and increase our chances in my center. The last feeder driver from there that I talked to about this said that "they were waiting on it to be approved." I wonder who "they" are and exactly who it is that has to approve it? There are so many unknowns about this. [/QUOTE]
