Exactly. Always negotiate for what you are guaranteed to get based on min monthly credit. When the music stops and there is no open time, you will be kicking yourself for giving up something to get that 150%.
On a personal note, if you want to come to work on a day off, why should I give something of monetary value up just so you can get your 150%? It's your choice to work on your day off.
When you go out on medical and collecting long term disability, that 150% isn't going to help you since your disability is based on your hourly and min gaureentee.
