I don't find it funny that a #15000 pilot gets an easy 1-1 over an 8000 FO because their fingers are faster, I get this board skews heavily junior but you guys won't be for long. In 3-4 years it will be you moaning about how the new hires are picking up all the nice trips.

I don't totally understand what APU solved in todays' world, now that we have ECS/DOTC etc. APU was solving the issue where CS would have to call everyone on the list to see who wanted to fly and that could take hours. It was a solution for yesterdays' problems.

With DOTC which can be run automagically without even input from CS, against ballots for everyone, I just don't see the point personally and degrades everyone's QOL. Instead of chilling and getting a notification you got a trip that meets your requirements, you have to be on your phone actively holding it to have a chance of getting an APU trip. Most are gone before everyone in the bid status even gets the notification, which is another issue.

I don't IMAX for the record.
