    If you can’t change the people around you then change the people around you.

    If seniority doesn't work, then become a favorite.

    Ok, a couple questions if I may for clarification purposes.

    Are we talking about extra runs, Saturday runs, or regular bids?

    Does this outfit do the “job class seniority” thing where if you switch from city to linehaul you go back to the bottom of the list?
