[QUOTE="Harry Manback, post: 1007979, member: 8872"] If I understood OP's first post correctly, the question was asked 'would he have to go back to his original bid route?' (paraphrase). If the driver on comp had a bid route, I don't see how he could bump a cover driver that bid long term coverage on a route. He should instead, return to the route he bid. Here, when drivers go out on comp., long term coverage is bid out to the cover drivers. A driver that already has a bid run cannot bid coverage of another run simply because he liked it more than the run he bid on originally. This would open a giant door for staffing issues because, bid drivers would be bouncing around all over the place and that's wrong. You bid a run, you should run it. They don't have time to play musical chairs on the staffing board every morning. The only way I could see this as being legit is if, the driver on comp. was out during the bid cycle and was not contacted when his turn to bid came up. This would make him a cover driver by default, and eligible to bump less senior cover drivers off long term coverage bids. [/QUOTE]
