[QUOTE="GoSlowEarnDough, post: 118407, member: 5642"] Good question.... I have been in our center 7 years and we have never had a route assigned to a driver on a permanent basis. Some utility driver will always take it. If you have your own route you can ask to go back to the utility list and then bid for routes on a weekly or daily basis as they are available. The advantage to this if you are #1 or 2 on the utility list there usually a better route to do then having your own route that sucks. The disadvantage is not knowing what you are going to do for the week. As far as any route being assigned mgmt should ask in seniority order who would like to do the route and if everyone says no then the force in reverse seniority order. In the contract it does state that mgmt must follow seniority in the day to day operations. Im not sure of the article off the top of my head maybe 19 in the master. If that feeder drivers route is being ran by a driver that has less seniority then you just let your mgr know that you would like to start running it next week. If he says no you might have to file a grievance. If he says yes and your center starts using a bid sheet make sure you sign up for that route every week. Just because you did it one week that does not guarantee you it until that feeder driver comes back. Its a weekly bid. now of course that is the way it is in So. Cal. seems like every district has its own way of doing things. I hope this helps. good luck [/QUOTE]
