[QUOTE="a911scanner, post: 3667840, member: 58498"] For someone who is quoting the past contract & the currently proposed contract and putting out facts and figures like an expert, let me quickly school you on something. As I am a "newbie" with just shy of 4 years as a FT DSP, I can speak to "actual knowledge" of the subject. I am currently on the 9.5 list, and have been since January 2018, which was my 3year & 3 month date of FT time service ([I]I would have been on the list sooner had I understood the language better[/I]). The reason why is covered in Art 37 as you listed above [B][I](1) the employee covers a route for a full week [/I][/B] Let me quickly, clearly and concisely explain how a FT Driver that has just gained seniority can be on the 9.5 list. 1)Cover a route every day for 1 week. You are now eligible to request to be on the 9.5 list. From there, you must go over 9.5 hours worked 3 times in a one week period after making your request known to management. Presto! 9.5 list for you, new driver. Obviously, #1 & #2 are essentially the same issue. #2 just covers if your management refuses to honor your running the same route for a full week if you've bid it and won the bid. Lastly, although I believe you may have misinterpreted it, #3 says that if you have worked as a driver for 4 years, you don't need to qualify with #1 or #2 anymore. You can just request 9.5 relief because you feel like it. I do think that many regions in the country do not understand this language in the contract, so it is not abided to by the letter of the language, so to speak. I appreciate when anyone gives actual & truthful information like you have. You just happen to miss the mark on this one. [/QUOTE]
