Interesting stuff. I'm a bit cranky anyway after having my 17 hour bid-for and awarded layover at home converted to a short night somewhere else with a double DH through ATL. 7 hours total deadheading with nothing better than 757 economy. Naturally I'm annoyed today.
I'm officially 1 for 4 on awarded layovers at home remaining on my schedule. I'm not telling them where I live anymore.

And EVERY SINGLE DEADHEAD over 2 hours should be comfort+ at a minimum. Anything in economy should be 150% pay. And no middle seats ever unless it's Delta one. But I may be a bit partial, since I'm about twice the height the economy seat was designed for.
As for UAL, they probably do get lines faster. Consider this: their last vacancy bid had published mock awards EVERY BUSINESS DAY so guys could see what they could expect and make adjustments. They also are much more limited in how much crew resources can "adjust" what's awarded vs what's offered. Ours take days, are done by hand, and often reflect something totally different than the seats initially offered.
And yes I put all of that in the surveys a while back.

There was one case around 2010 where they didn’t come out until after the deadline on the 17th.
