Congratulations, you have achieved complete and total thread derailment!

Original thread: network down..... derailed thread: maternity leave and socialism.

I still can’t grasp how some can bid a trip at straight when they could be getting POT. I guess you can’t fix stupid.

Bid strait. Bid safe.

The company needs you.

In our category there are lots of trips in GA. Bid premium open time and pick up GA to help out fellow pilots if you’re willing to fly for straight time.

pick up my GA trip so at least one of us is bidding premium over those days.

Ah, we truly have come full circle. Pilots are telling other pilots how to bid again. Can't wait to get my first angry text telling me how I screwed up "their" premium trip.

I do not think anyone said do not bid straight. It is just shocking when somebody bids straight and everything is going premium, they could’ve made more money. It’s a free country bid as you please, we are not sharing a joint bank account.

What about a junior bidder who otherwise would likely not get the (apparently otherwise desirable) trip at premium, then are they so wrong to bid it straight?
