Seniority is everything. Everything.
In my career one earlier class would have meant the difference between a furlough or remaining on property. It could mean the difference between reserve or a line. Weekends off or not. An upgrade or an extended time in the right seat. You want the best odds you can get to be where you want to be when the music stops and if you think it can't happen to you, you're dead wrong.
Take the first class you are offered. Always.

Totally agree.
As one who very recently got the call, I'm just trying to speculate when class might be.
