From the company’s view, PBS will cut down on manning requirements by up to 30% by eliminating conflicts (training, vacation, month to month bidding) allowing it to staff more with the people it has. Envoys schedules will start to mirror Piedmont’s (min days off for min guarantee, trip credits averaging 4hrs per day etc.). Not a direction anyone with an appreciation for QOL should look forward to going.
