Going fulltime in the hub will make me lose out in the long run?

[QUOTE="Been In Brown Too Long, post: 3544697, member: 32249"] Here in NorCal, the bids into feeder go through all full-timer bidders first before a part timer even has a shot. The full time progression begins once you start full time. Only one full time progression is required. Also, here, a cover feeder postion is an actual full time feeder position that also keeps their last bid, say package, inside, etc...If you've already run a full time progression, you'll be at 100% rate even as a cover feeder driver. Say there are 100 feeder runs, with 100 feeder bid drivers. They'll have (guessing)15-25 cover feeder drivers that when not covering do their normal position, package car driver, etc... Once per year, the 125 feeder drivers then bid on those 100 runs by seniority. The ones that don't get a run are cover. We have had numerous higher seniority feeder drivers decide to go cover and then they can have a package route as well. Not sure if that's how it works in your supplement, but just giving you an idea of how it works here. Like most others have said here before, if your overall goal is full time, I'd grab the first full time position that presents itself and get that full time progression started. [/QUOTE]
