Any other terminal out there dispatch by straight seniority instead of bids?
Since I'm in a small 10 man barn, we've always bid our work by start times, all work available posted the night before,....for at least the last 25 years that I know of....Works for us, anyway.
Recently, the question came up about bid runs and areas. I was told by our Labor man a while ago, that "many terminals " dispatch like us.......he gave no examples.
Just curious,...... anyone else dispatch by straight seniority, all work available, with no set bid runs? I would imagine this would apply to the smaller terminals only.
