Well, if we didn't give them that flexibility I think they'd be pretty handcuffed. If they're coming off the weekend and the most junior guys are in the 1 day bucket while the more senior are in the 4 day bucket, it makes no sense to have to assign the SC's to the 1 day guys. It's a good fix to the current contract as it gives people the ability to exercise their seniority. If you were junior before you were pretty much hosed anyways, especially in a small category. But before there was no structure to SC assignment, & this way there actually is.
