Got the same call. Super bummed as it means my b-day Alaska trip is now off but thems the breaks. I knew the rules when I placed the bid. Our whole IQ bid system is a glaring weak point in our contract though.

June training is now showing up in my PBS calendar. One day before the bids close. They didn’t ask for my concurrence, just left a voicemail saying “hey trainings on your schedule.” Thought I saw someone post that they needed mutual concurrence......

On the bright side, you just got a very nice preview of how to bid for June to either maximize pay (front-end load your trips) or maximize time off prior to training.(maximize trips that touch your training footprint).

This is not contractual. You should call and have them pull it out of PBS and bid trips that touch the footprint. Even if they don’t, you can eventually win the grievance that you should have had a clean month to bid. To pre-post, it needed to be on your calendar by 1800 on the 4th. See training update 20-03.
