We have allowed this to fester because we have not deemed it a high enough priority to the negotiating committee. I say its time to fix this abortion. Please tell your LEC reps your thoughts on our PBS system, so maybe we can use some negotiating capital on getting this fixed.

Let's clarify something right now. It works as the company set up the constraints. It does not now, or has not ever strictly honored seniority. It was never set up to abrogate seniority, but it does.

It's a lousy system that doesn't honor seniority that desperately needs improvement. Anyone who is happy with our current system is either in the top 5% or hasn't used a better system to know differently.

PBS is only an absence management system that is designed to minimize staffing requirements while maximizing pilot availability through inputed de-cconfliction, And homogenizing flight time. It is not required to honor sennniority the same way it does in perm bidding, vacancy bidding, displacement bidding and vacation bidding.

Yup, viewed the videos, and the PBS specialists. I understand the system just fine, I can bid what my seniority holds and get something commensurate. That's not the issue.
