If you are on reserve and the golden day falls on a day of reserve, you can either take that extra day off, but 4:12 hours will be taken from your user/vacation bank, or move the reserve day to another day in that bid period (this has to be requested before the 24th of the month prior). Sucks when you are on reserve, as a line holder it gets better.
No. Not an extra day of at all. A golden day just forces the system to give you your normal day(s) off on a specific day(s).

You cannot use them on a holiday, or day before or day after.

They are useful, to ensure you get important days off (kids bday, anniversary, etc) as long as they don't fall on a holiday.
