[QUOTE="NHDRVR, post: 751717, member: 10327"] An idea that someone had a few years back has stuck with me. In our region we are able to use a either 5 sick days or 3 sick and 2 optional to get another scheduled week off during our vacation picks. I don't know if this is done throughout the rest of the country. Any ways, the idea was that the picks would run as normal with the exception being your additional week, using the sick days, would be after everyone had picked their normal weeks. It would simply give junior drivers an opportunity to get a summer week. I always felt that since seniority really doesn't get us anything, vacation picks were our way of getting something for our time here. I am on week 2 of 4 in a row and I take 2 more after peak. Part of me wanted to be able to get a vacation in the summer when I started but a bigger part knew that my time would come when I put my time in. I still feel that's the case here... As someone said, do your time and earn your stripes... [/QUOTE]
