Sometimes I hear the complaining, and I really do get it (senior people shouldn’t have to be super clever to get the schedule they want), but flying your heinous PBS awarded schedule or the exact LC days you’re awarded seems kinda lazy.
I’m all for a good GS getting you the days off you wanted originally for extra pay, but sometimes you’ve gotta plan stuff ahead so the awarded schedule is what it is.
