I think "woefully" is overly dramatic. But if the per day increases, that is undoubtedly a good thing. I am curious as to what you mean by "do away with knowing when we will have time off".

If you bid reserve, you get a higher paying month and work a lot less. Yeah you are on the short call hook for some days, but if you are in some of these categories, you are also short staffed, and creative bidding will pay off like a drunk slot machine. (I am not in one of those btw)
