Going on an interview Monday at 058. Two positions are available: Combo and Extra board. Leaning towards Combo currently but was wondering if I wanted to move over to a linehaul bid someday if my seniority would carry over? Anyone familiar with this terminal to explain to me what I can expect, run-wise?
 
Your Seniority to Linehaul from Combo would carry over after 90 days of being at the bottom, get the Seniority rules and read them well, its like a ridiculous 7 pages long. Everything is by Category of driver not the time you have been with the company. That is why I left Estes after 13 years of being there, they took most of our Linehaul away and made most runs Hub within a year. They change stuff and you can get screwed.
 
You'll be home more with combo. Make more $ extraboarding. You'll gain line haul time on combo but as mentioned, you'll get your time back after 90 days once you change catigories. Might have changed it to 60 days recently.
