Correct. Bid Sat/Sun off, don’t get the weekend off. Bid awards published and 1st window opens to see weekends in the green. It doesn’t happen every month, but maybe every other month and has been going on for a long time. Yes sometimes I can swap and get some weekends off after the bid, but not always the case.

SSC said the reason was something to the effect of they need RSVs on the weekends creating green grids so lineholders can swap their trips.
