Some LCA are junior and get horrible trips over the weekends that no senior FO's will bid.

The bad part about playing the LCA game is if it is a crappy trip you won't swap it because you hope they will buy it, when they don't buy it you end up flying a crappy trip with a LCA. (90% of them in SLC are awesome though)
