Working the system? WTF are you talking about? This is a blatant violation of seniority. So F-ing what if with that seniority they're able to get trips bought off. It happens at every airline. Delta voted no on their last contract the first time in part because of this very issue. Nice to see they don't eat their own like you selfish Fuk's do.

It's not all about bidding trips off. Now the senior FOs will bid more productive trips that would have gone to less senior FOs, or they're upgrade and deny other guys an upgrade who may have wanted it earlier.

This group can be so F-ing short sighted sometimes.
