You more than do your part to try and help others out. We are not asked to fill in for linehaul anymore just the combo guys. If a linehaul run opened up at my term there would be no problem filling that position. Our TM has over hired in the past and we have taken big hits in our paychecks. I did not even see a 40 hour check this year until the end of April. The differences in the way city and linehaul get treated are vastlt different. I don't think myself or others are bellyaching when a linehaul man may get rotated 5 times in an entire year and a city man could get rotated 5 times in less than a month. If a city man does not want to fill in for linehaul when work is available he should not cry about his paycheck then. Beggars can't be choosers. The reason city drivers will never get to bid on runs IMHO is because supervision will never allow the slackers to have to run the harder runs everyday and deal with the mess that creates.
line haul drivers get treated much better than peddle drivers
