So there are four trips in open time on Saturday. Three two day trips with early reports and a commutable three day trip. I'm in the six day bucket and I'm the senior reserve. Guess who gets the nice commutable three day trip? The junior guy in the three day bucket while I get stuck with the nasty non-commutable two day causing me to lose a whole day at home. What a bunch of garbage.

Really classy. Nice response. I've been on reserve 4 of 5 years here and displaced 5 times, so I think I get to vent a little.
The point I was trying to make is that if we're all going to be assigned trips, then the senior guy should have preference. Or if I want to fly, I should be able to take a trip on my reserve day regardless of what bucket I'm in.

Did you put in a yellow slip for the trip? The 3 day trip is supposed to go to the person with 3 days of availability, regardless of seniority...all things being equal of course. If you YS, then I think you would have gotten the trip.

I called scheduling and they said that the trip will go to the 3 day bucket person regardless of seniority or yellow slip because I'm in the 6 day bucket.

A YS will be trumped if there is a pilot whose bucket matches the length of the trip.
