There's nothing good about any of these position notices, most people in both seats are losing seniority and as usual, the top 40% is a revolving door. Pilots from ATL bid DTW in search of a better line (or getting off reserve) without any research only to realize how much the commute from ATL-DTW sucks and then bid back to ATL 6 months later. Those of us who are a bit more permanent are sick of it. Yeah, I know, that's how seniority works. It's their prerogative.
While I'm on a rant, F%@ those ultra-senior FOs (0-900 on the master seniority list) who all of a sudden decide they want to play captain after 12-20 years. Should be a statute of limitations on the upgrade.

P.S. F&@$ this place (ASA)
