I'm going to raise the "B.S." flag on that. You MUST be one of those guys that's buddies with the schedulers? Why else would you defend this "if it's good for ME" practice?

How much do you pay for really good trips? I've had guys admit that they "paid" for DFT/VOL trips! I call that "SHADY"!*?

Or ... maybe the rest of us just aren't as smart as you and your buds???
