I'm lovin' this choice! Kudos to our MEC for finally putting the past behind them and using their brains and not their emotions.
Here's a tiny nugget that shows the attitude of our new MC:

. . . reassignments into days off should only happen when you can’t return to your base. Being reassigned on day 2 of 3 into a day off is crap, even if untriggered. It abrogates seniority. The restoration process is a joke, and should be immediate with zero financial penalty.
Garth's reply:
Completely agree!
A few weeks ago I was reassigned on day 1 of a 3 day trip into a day off (on Saturday). The reassignment had me passing through my domicile on day 3. But the scheduler said she was instructed to add on a day because it was legal.
I’m not voting for any TA that allows such a reassignment. And I’m still fuming that the failed TA would have made lineholder reassignments easier.
