I'm not saying we need the 24 hour-2 hour check in a Mesa(I'm actually very opposed since they want to use it as a way to change your trip) but checking in (in an attendance "format") is not useless.
Which legacies require the sign in? I'm not aware of any but have done no research on the matter. My current job does not require it.
Still babysitting to me. Keeping folks accountable that's what the 45 minutes prior is for and the ten minute call after that it's in the GOM, course I'm sure you know where it's at.
Check in at mesa = pandora's box for crew trac (also the F8 certificate lock for contract admin)
Good luck I hope it works out.
