i agree, but we're talking about 2 different issues here. what you're bringing up is certainly a big issue, but has nothing to do with how trips are covered. i'm with you 100% on that being the reason so many trips are in open time, why our QOL sucks and we aren't able to drop trips and so forth.
The two are interconnected, fix one and the other isn't as much of an issue. We fix batch sizes for them, what drives them to be willing to fix our issues? You mentioned the reserve coverage formula above, that wouldn't be a terrible place to start.

You folks do realize that if we had "adequate staffing", there would be a bare fraction of the premium time we have today, if any at all. The senior people in each category would hoover it all up, and everyone else would just be flying their lines. ALVs would be relatively low, the open board and swap board would be empty.
Most on this thread, with the exception of a few, would lose their minds if that were to happen.

Sure do realize it, and it's what I'd love to see again. Lower ALV's would be a welcome sight. It also means line holders could more freely drop trips without the negative coverage game, fewer days used for the reserves, etc... I lived it for a time here and it was pretty dang great.
