Read your reason's report in PBS. It explains what PBS was doing when running your bid preferences. It might take a PBS guy to read it and explain it since you are new yet however. If a guy junior to you got a line, you did not either wave enough stuff like one day off/same day parings, etc., like he/she did, or used else start next bid group and/or clear schedule and start next, because you didn't get exactly what you wanted.
Our PBS system is awesome. It is up to you to learn how to master it. Best advice is to do what prior said and email alpa or talk to your captains, print out your bid and reasons report, and show them and get help. Your on the right track tho.
