No one can tell the truth for 3 seconds at that building, so how do you know what is going on? Last summer was a melt down. Christmas was a melt down. Followed by "we are hiring and upgrading so much we don't have the sim time to keep up" to "all hands needed on deck" to colas.
They are purely overstaffed. My point was that if people choose to not take the COLAs there's high likelihood that reserve availability will be so deep you'll barely get used. So, 75hrs pay for god knows how little obligation, or ZERO pay and guaranteed no obligation.
