You don't need permission bro. Just do whatever you need to do in order to:

1. Get paid the most
2. Have the most off time
3. Best trips and QOL

As long as it's within the bounds of the contract, you are A-OK.

Me personally, I do what's best for me. I'm not an OT hog, but I do pick up on certain occasions in transition and yes, at straight pay sometimes.

For instance, January is a notoriously slow month for getting called for JA's. There are quite a few reserves available in my base over the first part of the month with only a couple of red days in there. I picked up an easy high credit 3 day. At straight pay.

We will likely be without a new contract for quite some time regardless of whether you pick up or not and regardless if you run all three on taxi at all times. Just do what's best for you.
