Pay no attention to me this sounded exactly like a guy I work with which would have been hilarious. But it’s not and it wasn’t lol.Lol. Not if they send 50% of his route. At that point seniority rules. Maybe you'll understand that one day.
OP’s?Pay no attention to me this sounded exactly like a guy I work with which would have been hilarious. But it’s not and it wasn’t lol.
But back on topic: the guy is mad they’re cutting his route for this rural deferred nonsense and wants to take OPs. Doesn’t work that way.
OP = original post/posterOP’s?
How is the 50% rule measured? Daily, Weekly, Monthly?
I don’t see how it could be based on daily to be able to bump a lower person off their bid route permanentlyDaily. Every time a route is cut.

You think completely eliminating it 2 days a week isnt 50% change?How can they rebid routes that aren’t changed 50%?
That's what seniority is all about.So you’re trying to duck a union brother out of his hard earned route because you’re a lazy son of a bitch?
They’re forcing centers to rebid most of the routes after implementing this in the areas I have heard of. Which is exactly how it should be.I didn’t say permanently. I said for a temporary change, they can bump for the day their route is out.
It is only a temporary change when a route is eliminated 1 or 2 days a week.
Ours have changed but not by a lot (40ish route center). They're basically just cutting all the overage non bid routes that we used to run. There is 1 bid route that's cut once a week (bid guy loves it) and runs different areas most of the other days.They’re forcing centers to rebid most of the routes after implementing this in the areas I have heard of. Which is exactly how it should be.
They’re drastically changing the routes people bid on.

When you say drastically, it still isn’t a 50% change, it’s only 40% change.They’re forcing centers to rebid most of the routes after implementing this in the areas I have heard of. Which is exactly how it should be.

Are the routes getting cut Mondays and Fridays?If a route gets cut 2 days a week, is that driver able to get off their route and permanently bid a route that has a lower seniority driver on it?
The contract reads that a route has to change over 50% to be able to bid off of it, the route being in 3 out of 5 days would be just a 40% change.
Guaranteed preload is stockpiling smalls for future delivery.Are the routes getting cut Mondays and Fridays?
No. 2 routes are cut Tuesday and Thursday. Then 2 different routes are cut on Wednesday and Friday.Are the routes getting cut Mondays and Fridays?
Is the route EXACTLY the same the other 3 days?Eliminating it 2 days a week is a 40% change, not 50%
It’s the same area the 3 days it’s inIs the route EXACTLY the same the other 3 days?
It’s a 100% change those 2 days. Doesn’t take much to kick that up 10% depending on the other days.
Exactly the same as it was when bid?It’s the same area the 3 days it’s in
