So while the OE guy is flying the trip of the quality YOU could hold, you're out flying a lower quality trip. And you take the next quality trip from the guy below, who takes it from the guy below that, etc.

I don't see any way a single FO wins in this scenario.
Just curious what do AA, UA, and SW do for OE? This contract should not have concessions and recovery obligations is a concession and blocked LCA trips is a much much larger concession!
