I utilized it a fair amount as a senior FO and it’s exhausting. Another downside to playing the transition game every month is that you then have to rely on IOT and DOT to clean the rest of your schedule up and hopefully get the days off you need. This results in not knowing your final schedule most times until 3-5 days before the beginning of the month which is maddening if you have a family. All this just to game the system so you can bump up your credit a bit every month and still be severely underpaid. No thanks. I’d rather just bid for the days off I need and make what I should be making at ~72 credit.
