[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1945315, member: 12508"] I've been a swing and didn't care for it. First, you don't know who signs, where to deliver etc., which is a pain. We all know that every route has shortcuts like door combos, who will sign and who won't etc. I'd rather not have to play the game. Second, management took full advantage because I was good, so if someone needed to dump stops, I got those in addition to a route I wasn't that well versed-in. This is a station with over 50 routes BTW. Maybe far more than that, and they weren't afraid to send you anywhere. This was in my Kool-Aid days, so I'd never consider a swing position or recommend it unless you're in a smaller station where you don't have that many routes to deal with. A big station...uh, no. It isn't worth the money, plus since you're management's biotch, they can tap you to stay and do Haz, International, load cans etc, due to operational need. You do what they want when they want it. Eff that. [/QUOTE]
