[QUOTE="retiredTxfeeder, post: 3360474, member: 52978"] A majority of the cover drivers pick the next weeks' job on their last day working the week before. Management has a list of the people who they KNOW is going to be off. (vacations, scheduled off) The top guy in seniority signs off on the job that he wants, and the next guy in seniority on down the line. They keep a few drivers in limbo (on call) to cover unexpected absences (call ins). I don't believe these bottom guys are guaranteed 40 hours/week. But where I worked, dispatch tried to keep those guys working around the yard or something if they requested the hours. Some guys are happy only working a few days a week. [/QUOTE]
