Line guarantee is 65hrs…that’s what you have to get in credit for your SS/GS/QS to pay 200%. There…no more sr pilots dropping trips to pick Qs/SS at 200% all the time and no more moving of trigger.

Increase the use of bank to meet the trigger from 5hrs to 10hrs. So in theory, you can drop down to 55 hrs…use 10hrs from the bank to meet trigger and feel free to pick any SS/GS/QS. Also include a counter so everyone has a chance.
Holy crap some of us come up with the absolute WORST ideas. Hard no to that, wow.

Edit: trigger-less premium is a good thing. Why are we trying to get rid of that? Instead of disincentivizing guys from dropping terrible trips, why aren't we incentiving guys to keep good trips? Better trips, more PBSPR, etc. Please don't turn our extraordinary leverage into concessions.
