Can higher seniority bump a bid driver?

[gman042]

Say driver B has a bid route. Driver E has a split from B. Volume drops and the split is absorbed back to B. E has more seniority than B. Can E bump B from bid route even though the 50%+ has not been met?
The way I see it…E had ample opportunity to bid said route and passed allowing a junior driver to have it. You just can’t come along and later say “hey! I want that route now”.

What supplement are you in

Seems like if there is enough volume for driver B to be on road, he drives his route and driver E has to pick from coverage routes.

Seniority is the key. It will take a bid cycle to clean up all changes

The problem is driver C. The lazy bum takes the day, so the company cuts routes, now B and E get hosed. Let's not even get started on A and D.

Western
And that is the way it should be
E should be coverage

Why....?
E has their chance at the bid and declined.
After bidding an expansion route that is now being reabsorbed NOW they decide they want the route they passed on to begin with. Snooze you lose

Driver E can only elect to bump the most senior coverage driver who did not bid a route for that week

Precisely!

Perhaps you do not truly see the problem. Everyone in the center calls you a "C", that is a big red flag.

Depends upon the supplement. Our cover drivers are full time bid positions. Driver E may not have enough seniority here.

But what happens if A takes over for B and then C says I want Z but then P says I want T but T says nope not high enough and then QRS jump in but then LGBTQRS scream not fair ……

What JC? The west covers 50% temporary changes not a permanent change. What is your JC because it may have other language.

Perhaps he is retired and referring to past language
