I do the same thing Sux just described, as do most of the guys in my BES. I watched five 50% trips sit in open time all day last month. Around 1800 they all went to 100% and everyone on the SRM list vanished. I was not a beneficiary but it made me smile to see it play out. Good thing there werent a bunch of you’s.
Exactly! I love watching trips post for 50% and nobody takes them. 30 minute to 1.5 hours or so later they go 100% and gone. Bravo to everyone that held the line!

It’s not greed, it’s knowing the fact the companies back is against the wall and if they want their last minute trip covered they shouldn’t be haggling for the most desperate pilot willing to do it for less. If you’re gonna rush your butt to the airport on your off days, FFS value yourself and the pilot group a bit more and do it for the max!
