[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 298921, member: 13254"] In our center, we have swing drivers (full time drivers) that have bid swing or unassigned. The swing drivers have a separate seniority list for the purpose of bidding daily on what open route the want to run. Of course "area knowledge" plays a role in this process also. We also have cover drivers(part time drivers) that also have permanent part time jobs such as preload or evening shift. If the cover driver works the evening shift but drives on a given day, he/she does not work their PT job. There are about 5 PTers that they know will be driving 90% of the time so they rarely work their preload shift. Even if no one calls in sick or otherwise takes a day off and no one is on vacation, there is always someone on extended time off, i.e. workers comp, outside disability, FMLA, terminated and under grievance. etc. Everyday, we will have up to 8-10 swing or cover drivers on road.
