Two things: 1. Can you pick up as many trips as you want with any overtime being added on top of your guarantee pay not your block? NO.

2. For those of you saying this would have happened even with our line bidding, WRONG. The initial line improvement has to happen before the secondary bid even opens, let alone they find out their schedules. In other words, guys with lines contractually have to know their schedules at the lastest by the 15th of the month. You ASA guys seriously need to take your heads out of the sand, man up and embrace a far superior situation. Imagine having that 17 hour block in a vacation month, picking up a 15 hour 2 day and getting paid 90 hours because its added onto guarantee not block. You essentially just got 90 hours of pay and blocked 32 hours for the month. WAKE UP!!!
