The poor ramper probably thought it was a 738...

I've had a ramper in Vegas come up to me and say "This is the smallest 73 I've seen..." He was serious.

Do you remember the date you saw it on the website? waybackmachine.org takes a snap of the entire internet and preserves it based on dates. You could go and see if you can find it there and then post it here.

Well Ascension seems to be working now (at least on my end, your results may vary) but does anybody know how it actually works? If I can't get my 1st request does it immediately go to the second request? Does it try to choose the next choice within that request? If I'm trying to get two weeks off in a row is that two choice in the same requests? or two different requests with two different choices?

I've read the document they put out months ago and it doesn't clarify anything.

Mine is still not working. I can sign in, but nothing is setup.

Once you are logged in, click "Submit Choices" under the vacation header, then on the left side of the screen click on "Submit Your Bid." That worked for me and I entered my bids, my question is where do I go to actually see how much vacation I have for 2018?

Same here - but be careful! If I select week #10, it's giving me week #9. So, just select one week higher than you want and it seems to be returning what you actually want. Glitchy system....

Glitchy system... No TSH would never go for the lowest bidder

Hey thanks, I just needed to get on a laptop and then I saw that. You can see how much you have by looking at the PDF on the "Pilot 2018 Annual Vacation Accrual Review and Projected Allocation" email sent on 9/1.

As far as the bid... I think/hope I have this figured out.... so each request # functions like a layer would in PBS. And within each request number you click "new" to build your bid for that request. What throws me off is what is meant by "choice" 1.. 2.. within each request block. I kinda just ignored the confusion and assume its just how you build each bid.

So if say 4th of July is your vacation bid and you had 2 weeks to bid, you might have:

(bid/layer 1) Request 1
Choice 1.... late June*** to early July***
Choice 2..... early July*** to mid July***

(bid/layer 2) Request 2
Choice 1.... early July*** to mid July***
Choice 2...... mid July*** to late July***

I hope that makes sense, that's how I am interpreting the "request vs. choice" language.
