Good information here. Thanks for the explanations, so I didn't have to dig it up. One consideration, is if they make every VTO with reserve in it carryover reserve, and every reserve line a carryover, there are going to be a lot more trips open the first week of the bid month. There are always far more trips open the first week of the bid month right now. This equates to extra trips to fill in the secondary line process, so less reserve assigned. Also with carryover, one can select min days off to be honored, so will they really want a huge number of people on reserve on the carryover to the next month (and some of those people will have already hit their max RLG and can't be assigned a trip), or will they want reserve to be spread out over the month evenly? It doesn't seem that helpful if everyone is on reserve the first week.
