Not saying that I don't see the benefit to the 4 days off (I am a commuter), I just feel that a higher daily min and higher monthly min day off may negate the necessity of the 4 day off min. I know this is sacrilegious around these parts so it's not really worth my time getting into. My point is that it's a great work rule, but let's put it in perspective.

Trip averaging may work, if paired with a higher daily min credit like DAL but with our current 4:30 per day it results in pretty inefficient trips.

I think we're pretty much on the same page. I just get concerned when I talk with guys on the line and they think that the only thing we need to fix is our pay rates.
