Saying I know the answer, and it is a good answer, but you need to call your rep comes off as patronizing and doesn't answer the question of how to bid to attend a rally when they won't tell you the date/dates they are trying to secure.
What is it with calling your rep?
Although it’s not a secret for FedEx pilots, maybe it’s something that, once told, maybe those of us who have called our reps decided that they’re not comfortable posting on a public message board.
Why do you harp on those of us say “it’s a valid reason” to post the reason. Why don’t you implore people who know and don’t think it’s a valid reason (TonyC, BrianH) to post the reason? Have them post it. Or how about you call your rep and post what they tell you on here. That way you can be the hero of APC.
