[QUOTE="trickpony1, post: 339257, member: 1957"] I'm a feeder driver. It's my understanding, and experience, that start times are bid and a run is assigned to that start time. On several occasions I have reported for work at my assigned start time and was dispatched somewhere other than my assigned run. I have to work as directed. This usually only occurs when there are hot loads going somewhere and the assigned driver had an emergency and didn't make it to work. Dispatcher has to get the loads moving and doesn't have time to get a coverage driver in. I don't think dispatch likes flipping loads, start times and drivers around as it causes confusion and missed loads. [/QUOTE]
