Mine are transcribed and left as a text message. It's a wall of "invalid entry" text.

I have a hard time seeing this as a threat. You play the fishing game and get burnt, well that's just a hard lesson learned. Why would anyone expect that a this would be dropped? Almost 100% of the trips I fly, are awarded via arcos, and I have yet to experience these 'erros' we're hearing about. I'm inclined to believe it is user error as well.

Probably confusion about white slips awarded a couple of days out.

Beats me. Seems pretty straightforward, but I'm no contract sharpshooter.

The white slip process in base is the exact opposite of straightforward. Have you set it up before? Been burnt by a delayed PCS run? Crazy a Fortune 500 company runs their scheduling system on software that was outdated 2 decades ago.

Is it the same mountain of evidence "proving" sick leave abuse? If so, might as well name it Monarch Hill, FL
