[QUOTE="Pkgrunner, post: 236761, member: 7207"] It may depend on your local, but here, you could bid on the route and then bid off it and go to utility driver if it does go satellite. Once you win a bid on a pkg route, its yours until you bid off it you can never be bumped off. All the best routes in my building are getting satellited and are now becoming the least desirable. My center just "satellited" the top two routes right after the 1 and 3 senior guys retired. They are now the lowest senior routes. The lowest utility drivers get put on those routes now since no one bid on them. They cannot be assigned permanently, and the company must pay mileage to the drop point from the building to whoever they send out to cover them. All the allowances change and what used to be a 12 hr plan day will become more like a 6 to 7 hr plan day. Even the feed routes' allowances get jacked. My route happens to be a feed route. I went from hardly any o/t to having to watch my ICC hours. Two drivers were supposed to be in my trailer, but now its only one due to containment issues that we forewarned the IE guy about-Hate to say I told you so to an IE guy! Wait a minuite, no I don't:w00t:-no offense Dudebro:wink: (Dudebro, any relation to db apparel?) [/QUOTE]
