[QUOTE="QKRSTKR, post: 864501, member: 16710"] Here is the way we do if per the contract. We use the same language in the contract that talks about permanent changes. This came up at a local hearing when this started happening a few years ago. Labor manager and BA agreed we follow the same language on a temporary basis. So it would go at least here, My rte out, I bump to junior driver with bid rte. That junior driver bumps junior driver. That junior driver bumps junior driver. That last junior driver is then assigned. Doesn't keep going on and on and on and on. Most of the time it only goes to the first time. Usually bumped driver has something else they know or can do. No doubt though the last guy who gets bumped gets screw job. My rte isn't very desirable, so doesn't usually affect me. If and when it does, I already know who I'm bumping. I do agree with Red and Other side. Definitly need new language. I also believe all bid rtes should be in before some garbage make up rte that has like 5 stops off every car in the center. Why would you pull a solid bid rte and put in no bid baseline? Try to tell the company that and of course the reply is "we can put in what ever rte we want." The actual key is drivers need to either follow their work or bump. We have some run and gunners that kill us too. [/QUOTE]
