If the company says "Sure, you can have them, but the premuim trigger goes to 85 hours," I say keep them out.
Screw premium pay..I'd rather have a higher hourly rate. We have too many folks here that love to have no life to get those few hours of premium pay. Lets bump up the rates and I'm happy to fly no more than 70hrs and have a life at home
