If the company wants pilots to get to work, they can make it so jumpseaters don't count against the weight. If they insist on changing the MTOGW in order to lift jumpseat weight restrictions, they can deal with pilots exercising the prudent pilot policy when denied the jumpseat for weight.
I'm a commuter and I know this will hurt commuters. But that's not reason enough to raise the MTOGW.

I’m completely against the scope give on the 550. It is one of the many reasons that I voted no. I routinely call scheduling with the commuter policy due to weight restricted 50 seaters and let them decide what to do. Sometimes they positive space me, sometimes I get on, and sometimes they burn a reserve while I go home. The weather is nice this time of year and there are plenty of things to do that are better than flying a 4 day.
