Why the junior guys (new hires bidding for the first time...ehem), for full commutability and an extra day off in NYC (where the complaints seem to be) is beyond me. It's simple. Go online, fill out the form, high likelihood of the 4th off, plus other weekends, commute in day of, out last day in the am....if p3 last day you go home and are simply contactable for the next string... Meaning most of last day off plus as you should be home mid day a day prior. With some trips already reassigned to start. Beats the heck out of reserve. Day flying? Sure, that's an automatic 200% over guarantee. But no, nobody is interested. *hands in the air*

Not sure what is missing here. But hey, you can lead the horse to water, can't make it drink.
