    True. Although about 85% of the time I go to the same hub. It is almost like being on a bid run. But that 15% where you get to do something else is a nice change of pace.

    I was on the flex board at my previous terminal, and I didn't mind running all the different P&D routes, after I got used to them. It was nice to have some variety in what I did on a day-to-day (and week-to-week) basis.

    Although having a set start time wasn't bad at all :yes2557:

    I have no problem with extraboard. I started extraboard, and moved clear across the country to get a bid run..Im the guy that will take off any given night to let a junior guy run, because I know what its like to be on the bottom and starving, and I have school and other income so taking off is not a big deal to me. But this e-b guy is an absolute brown noser that hangs with the TM outside of work, so he gets to do as he wishes..
