The ability to pad your credit with easy open-time trips are only limited to those willing to sit watching Flica all day. So yes....probably better off doing Reserve unless you’re one of those select few.

I hope super senior. Because the last thing a commuter wants is to sit in a Kew Crashpad for a week doing absolutely nothing. Well, except getting infected. So please, if you’re senior... SCR is all you.

Yeah, I'd be taking an unpaid Leave of Absence at that point, which I'm sure they would grant me right now with no problem. Nothing would be worse than what you described.

I PTO'd a trip at 0230 this morning. Gone in less than 2 minutes. No way a guy gets an alert, decides he wants the trip, logs on to Flica, puts in the request and gets approved in less than 2 minutes at 0230.

Bots, I'm sure. Wish I could prove it.

Senior local BOS 190 FOs (even senior local ANY seat guys)

Please please please bid SCR for May. I believe I speak for the commuter junior guys when I say I don't want to get stuck in a crashpad with RONA serving me bfast lunch and dinner. Atleast you all will be home and so will we unless we are flying.

Alerts for a long time, for good trips( now all trips it seems), have only served to alert you of a trip you've missed and has already been picked up. At least in my experience. YMMV

doesn’t make bots ethical. I wish flics would have some sort of captcha.

I say any local would be awesome if they bid scr. You won’t be flying and saves other guys from sitting in a crashpad doing nothing but getting sick.

That won’t stop a bot. The guys with bots are way ahead of the game.

The only thing I’ve heard that makes sense and would work is to have a 2 or 5 or 10 minute or however much time lag from when it drops to when it can be assigned. If multiple people bid on it, then there’d be a system to assign it (based on seniority, total credit, randomized, etc).
