[QUOTE="air_dr, post: 1034881, member: 29929"] What I don't fully get is if it is so much to the company's advantage to keep giving OT to existing drivers rather than to be hiring additional drivers, wouldn't it then also be to the company's advantage to have as many people as possible working full time in the hub as well? OK, I realize a 22.3 combo person at top scale makes way more than the new hire at 8.50 or $9.50, but wouldn't there be tremendous interest at say creating a whole lot of FT inside jobs in exchange for some concession on the inside full timer wages? Being a PM air driver, with what I am hearing about how it is better for the company to just pay overtime in general, I am wondering if someone is going to decide one day that it is somehow cheaper to have my route covered by a full timer. If anyone has a better sense of how all this works than I do, I would be interested in hearing what he has to say. [/QUOTE]
