Any idea about the payback days? I'm thinking if I have these, I could have used them instead of my no credit APD, no?
Like climb said above, if the reserve coverage was good enough, you could have used the PB day and kept your pay the same.
BUT, that is a terrible use for a PB day on a macro scale. Save PB days for when you are a line holder and use them to drop high-time trips. Then, instead of being worth 4ish hours per day, they could be used for 6,7,8 hours per day. I saved a couple of PB days for 1 day trips worth almost hours that I pulled off the swap board. Almost double what they were worth as reserve days.
