Don't dare ask a new FDX driver to do that !
They may get their patent leather dress shoes scoffed.

lol that was back in the day when it was Arkansas Freight and American Freight. I miss those days(sometimes lol)

Love the hate going around.

To answer the OP's Q - I'm sure it depends on the location manager, but I'm the only Class B and I'm on the same seniority list as the Class A's. It's not SUPPOSED to be that way, but it is. The fewer DR's there are, I am subject to a call-off alongside the A's. Same with vacations.

WHY... OH WHY must we segregate class B from Class A or class whatever from each other. They are all equally one creature.

There may be instances where that's true, but aside from the hostler I have never driven anything but a B. Military trucks, RV's, buses.... whatever. You guys do more things than I know how to (adjusting a trailer's axles, lifting and lowering the landing gear, hooking and unhooking the hoses, adding the dolly between sets, etc). Everything I have driven has been on one frame, and it's super easy to back up. There is more to it than just getting a DR signed.
