So, are you saying that when they build a bunch of lines, and then you bid on them by seniority that it isn't fair?
What I am saying is that for places that use scheduled lines or blocks, even the very most junior lineholder will get something that is liveable... under PBS, the junior people get extremely BAD lines made over from the scraps left over, in order for the more senior people to be happy like you.
I'm senior enough that I can live with either system. The bidding on established lines is better for the junior folks. It would be wonderful to get PBS and live the high life at the expense of those below me... but, even I'm not that evil.
Besides, with PBS you are giving WAY too much control of schedules to the company.... you can kiss your 30/7 conflicts goodbye.
