So is the following statement true or false?

"You are aware that your "LEC REPS" do not receive any sort of override whatsoever correct? They do not get trip drops for any LEC business. Representing pilots in the CP office? Off days. LEC meetings? Off days. In the larger bases you have Reps that are going to the airport 16 days a month to fly and then 8 or 9 days a month doing representations etc. This work does not get done by magic."

Reps do get trip drops, but not for any of the above which probably takes up most of their time.

Simply stating that Reps are entitled to trip drops ignores the overwhelming percent of their time they spend representing you on their off time when they are not entitled to trip drops as your LEC rep.
