I heard presidential is who out bid us on the 300s, I'm sure it's not hard to out bid PDT though.

I miscounted earlier, sorry about that. We actually have 7 fo's on reserve system wide next month. That is so much better.

The almost 1,800 hours of open time for Piedmont FO's in April is now marked as Premium Pay.

Sweet. Let the junior mans begin. Even if I could pick up the open time (which I don't think I would after the last few months) my schedule as a line holder has been built with 5 on 2 or 3 off and a monthly guarantee of over 94 hours. Yet another example of the company shooting themselves in the foot. Although it was a little comical seeing every trip in open time noted as premium time.
