Don't lose sight here Mike. This was originally about the OE carve out. With recovery rights, as we used to have, you could be assigned trips that were not completely in the footprint of your original trip, hence commuting disaster.
That is what we are talking about, some sort of protection from that. We commuters understand that you do not commute and therefore you should not have to waste negotiating capital for what you are voicing concerns with, PS to work. We do fine as it is, but when you do everything right and are responsible the company, with regards to OE assignments, should help us out. Don't make this into a commuter bashing "it is a choice" issue.
