Quote: This better not become the norm. I see lots of sick calls. This is one of the first times it has not honored my basic bid of no less than 72 hours off between trips. The higher the ALV the lower the spread should be. IE: 84 ALV= + or - 2. 72 ALV = + or - 10.
The last two summers I've had no problem working Sun-Wed commutable trips on DTW 7ERB, I've moved up 10-15% in category in the last year, and this year the best I can get is commutable trips that start Saturday or Sunday early AM sign ins. I don't know what's going on but I've moved up a significant % and have a worse schedule than last winter. I had to bid reserve this month to get the days off I need. No Es bueno!
