The trip remained available for a lineholder to cherry pick for up to 8 hours before show time.

It was a nice option to have, but I suppose it does zero good if there is nothing in open time!
Wait, I thought agressive pickup was a joke from that Ways to Save on Contract XX with the outsourcing of scheduling to India?
