Yup. I do.
I suspect you do too.
Living in base means trading your line for reserve blocks with reserve commuters who’d rather fly than risk paying for hotels or even bidding it in DOT when OT pickings are slim.
I should pick up some of these 12 tfp reserve days! Sounds very lucrative. I don't live in domicile though, so I am, apparently, not eligible.
Daily reassignment pay during the ole bait n switch also helps quite a bit. Personal best 3-day reserve was around 35 TFP simply due to scheduling piling on assignments and pushing back my return back to base.
You get bait and switched on reserve too? I thought you were already on reserve, when you're on reserve? I guess that explains how Thunder averaged 12+ tfp per day for 4 months. In the winter, no less. He must get bait and switched every single day!
