Mike, I've been bidding on RES for quite some time now. There are some benefits to the golden days, but honestly, I've actually never had an X day violated. I don't even bother bidding the golden days anymore. They will show up randomly on your schedule if you do not bid them FYI.
The only advantage I see is being released automatically at noon the day prior. I always put a Golden X day on the first day of a group of days off.
