Yes. I think they count on way more pilots willing to fly GS's than they actually have. Some months I'll do as many GS's as I can, other months I do none. There is very little predictability in how many pilots will fly GS's so some months GS's will cover all sick calls, other months not so much.

With all the sick data they blasted us with in the CR newsletters you would think they could staff the categories to cover the historical amount of sick calls in each category.
