Absolutely. As anyone who reads my posts can attest, I am far from a "radical." But this is a one item NO vote from me. The company is just now realizing that they are led by buffoons, just now realizing that Rolling Thunder and multiple PB days are a "thing" and just now realizing that pilots, while we may take awhile to figure things out, eventually can take the mindset of "with chaos, there is opportunity." They are just now realizing that strategies that look brilliant in a breathless meeting-room presentation, surrounded by likeminded sorts agreeing with each other, don't always work out so well in the real world.

Reserve PB days have been a feature of the contract for 50 years! However, until recently they were very rare for several reasons. See an earlier post of mine for details. But the biggest point is, they couldn't have "Rolling Thunder" if they just staffed the categories to normal levels. The whole reserve GS/PB day concept is there to punish the company when they ludicrously underman categories. Who was it mentioning cake and eating it too? If the company is distressed about reserve PB days, there is a real easy solution--staff the categories such that multiple GS aren't a "thing." Since no one gets GS#2 unless everyone in the category has a shot at GS#1, that isn't exactly asking for much is it?
