Started off by just using a couple air drivers riding along with a sup because of call ins or high volume. Now it is an everyday thing 10 to 12 hours a day. Union knows all about it but just as long as a FT driver is not involuntarily (lots of volunteers) laid off, they are okay with it. Union stewards complain about using PT drivers until they have an 8 hour request and an air driver has to come pull stops. Then you are their best friend.

Absolutely. Drivers only complain about PT air drivers delivering ground until their 8 hour or day off is denied. Then they want to know why an air driver can't do their work. Or at least their undesirable work. Over weights, over size, apts., any stop that they can not bonus on.
