Someone higher up then me. So basically I’m stuck in a revolving door where I have junior guys with M-friend routes I’d be willing to take, and senior guys grabbing the routes people moved off of. It’s just amazing to me that my only resort is unassigned cover, or wait for a route that goes up. All because of a shift change. Not because the route was actually cut out. In that case, I’d be able to move over without a problem. With our bids another 8 months out, I’m just trying to stay positive. I know it’s just a change of pace, but I like the stability and knowing my own area. It seems bizarre that they could change the top guys route and he would be left with either winning the bid and go into Saturdays or have to be a cover driver until another bid goes up. Thats why this situation is suspicious to me. And with my union representatives basically telling me to kick sand, it makes me wonder if they really deserve the extra dues they decided we needed to pay last year.
Furthermore, my vacations were picked and planned months ago on the T-S work week. I’m waiting for the call saying I’ll have to adjust my flights hotels because they decided to change things up.
