One you control yourself, the other you trust management to do it for you.
The pairings are construcyed by the company in both cases...PBS cannot fix crappy pairings.
PBS
- More likley that you will get a specific day off (unless it is Christmas)
- You may be able to get better commutability
- More lines, less reserves
- Allows senior folks to cherry-pick the best trips
- Often less days off for low/mid seniority lineholders
- No "common sense" applied to line construction
- If you do not understand how PBS works, you will be sitting hot reserve on Christmas day, regardless of seniority.
- If you are not computer-savvy, you are screwed.
Paper Bid
- Lines are often fairly consistent
- More reserve lines
- Low/Mid-seniority folks often get a better deal than with PBS, because the top dogs can't cherry-pick ALL of the best trips.
- If you need a specific day off, you may have to go below your normal seniority (and line quality) to get it.
- Dumbasses can use this system succesfully.
PBS is probably the better system, but it might hurt mid-seniority guys.
Pbs Sucks!
