The RUO gives them so much flexibility it is ridiculous. Not to mention, since you see none of the data they use, you are being treated like a mushroom.
The short call estimates they are putting out are not worth the 13 seconds it takes to produce their WAG. SCs come out late for no reason, and I just asked for a later SC on the day prior, and didn't get it for apparently no reason. ACL, why are you defending this?
I'm done doing favors to scheduling, until I see at least one flow back my direction.
