Preparatory Time. All operators, except operators relieving another operator, must report to the dispatcher ten (10) minutes before their runs are due out. Such time shall be used to prepare transfers, check their personal appearance, complete pre-trip inspections, including wheelchair lift operation, and to start the buses. For each run pulled from the Employer's garage the operator shall receive ten (10) minutes preparatory time regardless of the number of vehicles they may pull from the garage in any one (1) day. Each operator relieving another operator shall receive four (4) minutes of preparatory time before the runs are due out. This time shall be used to ensure a smooth transition from one operator to another and to allow the operator to check his or her personal appearance.
