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.

Maybe we could consider trading future batch sizes for more RCC control over initial bid packages and /or network’s imaginary capabilities.

Part of the blanket gs problem is the company’s blunt approach to initial and broken-up trip construction. Honor more of our inputs and we won’t be forced to ignore 10 gs to discover the ones we’d actually fly.
or perhaps: Allow us to ‘tailor a pairing’ before it’s even created and we could be very efficient for the co and also flying desirable trips. I recognize there would be limits to the ‘tailor a pairing’ concept since some legs are simply undesirable but still need to be flown. Maybe the RLL formula could be a starting point.
fwiw I like the lottery suggestion better than this one above.

Are Inverse Assignments sent out in batches or one pilot at a time? I suspect it's the former. Today I received the automated call, hung up, looked at the rotation, and when I had called back (probably 2-3 minutes max) a senior pilot had already received the IA.
I was under the impression it went 1 pilot at a time starting at the bottom.
