If you're senior and want that trip, bid the line with that trip in it. Easy.

So, now hawking open time is bad? So if someone wants to spend a few hours constantly refreshing ViPS to see if anything pops up, they're punished? Please. Fastest internet is now a reason to award senior guys trips over junior guys more on the ball? Do you know what, you're senior... open your wallet and buy faster internet.

Once I pick up a trip, I can't trade it? Great, now we have guys actively pushing for less schedule flexibility. SMH. Do us all a favor and please don't volunteer for the Negotiating Committee.
