Enter the reserve Green-slip. Straight pay - yes. Albeit, above the cap and finally, here is the most important part, you get your days off back.

Rolling Thunder is the most effecient way to make more and work less, no doubt. If I lived in base, I'd be doing that every month instead of bidding regular lines! I chose to live where I wanted to spend time on my days off, vs. making it easier to get to work. So I value my days off more than mo'money, 38% of which goes straight to Uncle Sam anyway. 28 years and I have yet to fly a greenslip. I turned a 5 day GS down last week worth 64 hours.

They can't tax your time off yet, but I'm sure they are working on it!
