Sometimes, it is a file line we tread! As defined by the rule books, the PU is the UIC in 2 man work and has certain duties. If I am the BU and I have a rookie at the plate, I will let him "run on the leash" but will reel him in if he is heading for trouble. We are partners and as the senior person, I will offer (not push) my help as needed. Of course, I am not talking about help on a call here, I am referring to help with touchy decisions dealing with rules, arguments and the like.
In 3 or more man crews, we usually agree on a crew chief. Sometimes we use the senior person, sometimes we use the junior person (that really sets off the coaches).
Of course, if a young buck won't "rein in" when pulled upon, I let him go until he runs out of steam. I usually walk away but I leave the barn door open - just in case he wants to stable up. Then as the senior person, I'll get the dogs off his back so he can recuperate.
Regards
