Different B/S/E perhaps, but I have had zero issues other than one month when I bid LCR and got SCR last year. I agree, our RSV grid move ability got insanely less user-friendly once the CBA was finalized. TBH, I never even look at the grid anymore, I simply put what I want, and either I get it or I don't. My luck has been the opposite of yours this past year. I don't recall any move ever being denied, but maybe one? Then again, I usually get exactly what I bid for, so I haven't really tried to move days more than 3-4 times perhaps? YMMV

I haven’t been successful in moving days once in the past 12 months.

I just swapped out of a Saturday; didn't bother trying to figure out grid, just submitted swap and checked back later.

Glad to see the recent grievance changed the process for swapping a shorter trip for a longer trip. Getting denied an OT swap from a 2-day to a 4-day that covered the same footprint was pretty asinine.

were you swapping a trip? Or a SCR rsv day.

it’s honestly very rare to swap a SCR day now. Used to be very easy. I have had no luck. Middle of the week days trying to trade for weekends don’t work even.

Yep.

It’s getting back to precovid times especially in the smaller bases. We literally only have enough SCR to cover the basic schedule. There is never more than 1 person in each bucket and never more than 1 person in a window.

Which means you can never move a SCR day.
