At my previous company, we had instant trip trading. Having it that way, everyone could change their schedule, junior and senior. But it gave the junior pilot hope to improve QOL. The senior pilots were able to improve their QOL even more, if they wanted to. But they were now on equal footing with the junior pilots. So everyone was happy. Senior pilots benefited by bidding with their seniority. And junior pilots were still able to increase QOL. And if the senior pilot still wanted to increase theirs as well, then they could too...with everyone else.
Huh? Everything you said in the 2nd paragraph after the first sentence applies at this company - the one that you chose to come to and leave the "previous company". So what exactly are you implying instant trip trading would do again other than give instant gratification to the member? I'm all for speeding it up but not instant - washes out necessary positives of PNP and PMU.
