And in case you didn't notice, in the last AE, there was no net gain in the manning in NY. therefore, there is no end in sight for this.

If the company wants to run the reserve system with the Atlanta base, that's fine just as long as it's clearly delineated in the mythical manning formula. And let me be perfectly clear on this: Swapping between bases is not the solution to this problem, so enjoy your regular line trips that you cannot drop. Maybe I'll get that MEX qual so you don't get so many GSs per month... Cause once I have it, EVERYBODY is gettin qualified.

Hell, we're covering NYC trips with LAX reserves these days. Just got back from one.
