[QUOTE="Box Ox, post: 3012883, member: 48469"] Sounds super dumb. Stuff happens: trucks get red tagged or have to be swapped around. Maybe the only truck the PDS can find is an old loud as hell diesel manual that'll have everybody looking out their windows as you're still driving up and down their neighborhood streets at 2100. So yeah, testing you in an old manual that can barely shift would be the best way to go. Because sometimes as a low seniority cover you've gotta take whatever route/truck falls in your lap. But, we are also coming into negotiations for the 8-2018 Contract. Company might want to point to automatic-only drivers as leverage. Or they might simply be having such a hard time recruiting younger folks at some locations that they're dropping the requirement. Maybe your location only has automatics. [/QUOTE]
