[QUOTE="10 Pt, post: 2622056"] You don't have to file to get on the 9.5 list and I've been on it at least twice. Once we get on it they are pretty careful to babysit your dispatch here. I have never had to file for the bonus pay. Two years ago we had a third of our drivers get on the list in a very short time. Working 9.5 hours on a dispatch pre-Orion wasn't as bad as it is now for many. Yes I know we don't recognize the company's "standards" but when your stops and bulk get jacked up the loaders struggle to get it in order (or in the truck period) and to ignorant eyes it looks like you're milking it. You learn how to do the methods because you're prob going to get a rider. What it was saying before I got challenged because I'm a "newbie" was that older drivers will bail out to the feeder job to save their bodies. Many drivers feel that 12 hrs in feeders is a whole lot better than 9.51 in pkgs. Please keep the petty jabs to a minimum because you can hurt rookies' feelings. [/QUOTE]
