I regularly see all sorts of potential GS out of NYC go to ATL reserves. All it costs the company is 1 DH from ATL...
It could be that a guy is on SC today, his final day of a reserve block, and is off for the next 3 days. There's a 4 day trip they're trying to fill, and you have a GS request on file. If the rules are met, you could be assigned that trip. It would pay you 1 day pay and credit towards guarantee (the SC day), and 3 days pay, no credit above guarantee, with 3 PB days.
If you were on LC in the same scenario, the trip would be coded as an "F" if it was a GS with less than 12 hours to report. In that case, you'd get 4 days pay above guarantee, one day of credit (I think), and 3 PB days as day one would be a RES day.
