NewFlyerMCI Posted August 18, 2019 Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 What factors determine what type of routes get picked by drivers based on seniority? For instance, let's use 103rd, what routes would be picked by the veterans and what would be left for the new drivers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old timers tend to pick runs that make the most money. 2-Route itself. Many drivers prefer to operate certain routes over others whether it be how busy its is, traffic patterns where it goes, etc. 3-Time of day. Believe it or not, many operators will actually choose night runs over day runs. Probably mostly because it is more laid back if you can handle the stress of working the night. Others will choose early day runs to be done early. Others will pick the split runs for $$$ as well as the time off in the middle. There is no form and the rookies really do generally get the crap left over. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
