Default Ok a real life business problem?

ok I own a few companies, mainly in transport. I post here in between work , purely for fun

I wont give you every tiny detail but enough info for you to possibly work out the best way forward

so the current situation is a tricky one, what would you do if you were boss

ok so I have say 10 bus contracts every day. I also have minibus contracts and taxi contracts every day

so one of my bus drivers went ill a week ago, so ill in fact hes been told he cant drive buses or minibuses for 3 months. so he has now made a dramatic recovery and wants a day taxi contract. the trouble is i have drivers on every taxi contract, so all i have for this guy is weekend work and the odd night. hes not happy he feels as hes been here longer than some of these other taxi drivers, he should take priority. he thinks its wrong that he was only off a week and now hasnt got a contract.

ive considered swapping the taxi drivers so they each only get say 3 and a haf days contracts to spread it out. this means swapping vehicles every day and night, also it means swapping drivers on every contract which the clients hate as the contracts are mostly with children

so what should I do?
