[QUOTE="pkg-king, post: 269131, member: 10175"] If you put in an 8 hr request they usually just move work to the guys around you. But in the event they are all heavy, they will pull off stops and build a split, it usually is the parttime cover driver that runs it. The guys who run the various splits in our center are the PT cover drivers. Although they are considered PT, they all get 40+ hours (except for the bottom 2 or 3, who are then able to work the local sort for some hours, which sucks), they are still a part of the wage progression and reach driver top rate at the end of that progression. The only difference is that their benifits and pension are covered under the UPS plan. When a FT driver retires, his FT bid is then awarded to the top seniority PT cover driver. It seems they are all used everyday with all the comps, call offs and vacations in our center. I don't know how this differs from the language in your supplement, but I know we were'nt happy when this went into effect 21 years ago. :peaceful: [/QUOTE]
