Sometimes it's better to have most of your days off at the end of the month (especially if you're not senior.) That way the senior guys have already gotten their G#1 or more and you're up next. Frequently the first and second weekends the GS don't flow all the way down the list-clearly depends on a lot of factors, but I kinda like shooting for "reverse" rolling thunder. That way you're more likely to get the GS AND you get PB days to use wherever you want, instead of just covering up your next RSV days.
PB days can be very useful and more valuable than just 1 RSV day if you do it right - but that's a whole 'nother subject.
