sorry man, been trying to grab it but I can't get rid of a trip I have that conflicts with it. Company hasn't approved a singe trade with open time in months. Apparently we need thousands of guys on reserve at all times. (and by thousands, I mean 10 which is completely unrealistic)

The last time I tried to switch something It was denied for the following:
Reserves available: 2
Reserves needed: 31

LOL. That's almost half of the seniority list in DTW. They make it impossible.

On the ERJ side, I've seen min levels as high as 87-88 in ORD. That is WELL OVER half the list. I think we only have 130-140 reserves any given month.
