[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1423849, member: 198"] So, you are saying that a current full-time package driver that has a bid route can bid on a new full-time package position? That's odd because usually the winning bidder would end up being an unassigned full-time driver and normally comes from the part-time to full-time pool bid. I know that it's possible to bid out of another full-time classification into package. Or even back into it for some people that have been in package before. What I'm confused about is this.....usually a new permanent full-time package position is added because the center needs another driver to cover vacations and overflow. [B]If someone is already a full-time driver and can bid on a [U]new[/U] full-time position to come off their bid route then how will the need for an [U]additional[/U] driver be met? [/B]Sure they'll rebid the route that was just vacated but where will the additional driver (which was the purpose for the bid) come from? I've never seen a full-timer driver sign a bid for a [U]new[/U] full-time package position. And most people here follow the rule "sign every bid." You see where I'm going with this?
