[QUOTE="scratch, post: 461010, member: 1674"] This is another one of those "depends on your local supplemental" questions. We bid in Center every two years, I think we are due up again this April. We can only bid into another Center if its been six months since our last time and if a bid route gets posted for some reason. I have been on my present route for thirteen years and somebody else with one year on me is eyeing to roll me off of it. He used to do EAMs and a senior driver in his Center rolled him off his old route last bid. I am getting tired of EAMs and am going to try to get this taken off my present route. They have been retiring all our old P500s leaving P800s and P1000s to do early trips. Its getting to be a big hassle to find something to drive every morning. Its nice to start at 6:30AM and get off before 5PM, but I still get only 9.5 hours a day and an extra hour or two of sleep in the morning would be nice. You would think that with 25 years seniority, your route you hope to retire on would be safe, but its not. There are better routes out there, so I am currently looking around. A change of scenery will be a good thing too. [/QUOTE]
