[QUOTE=Nightflyer;2109740]Bids are held once a year, which is insane. Perhaps if bids were held every month, I could see your point. So, here is an example. A guy arrives here just after this bid has closed. He didn't get a chance to bid the 767. Now someone junior to him is given a 767 slot.

So who is the guy who just arrived? Is he a new hire? If so, there isn't anyone junior to him to bid.

And now some guys are beaked because the days of POP for years are over. There were guys riding the WB capt pay for years knowing that the chance for upgrade was way in the future. How screwed up is it to pay a FO WB capt pay for years? So now the company has got a new system thanks to a contract that was voted in by the majority. The whole POP is screwed up at FX when you have only one bid once a year or less. POP made sense when a guy was going to train in a much shorter time and guys could bid.
