I'd really like to make a change to this part of the contract. It sucks as a RES when there's no open time in-base and all of a sudden you get the 40 minute call out to go cover some NYC garbage with middle seat DH on both ends and 9 hours at the JFK crown. Just as bad when you see there's no RES coverage and just as you think you're gonna get that juicy GS the trip is covered by an OOB RES. Contractually legal, but just feels like cheating. I'd propose any OOB trip covered by a RES costs the company the DH legs as pay/credit above guarantee. It would be a nice benny in return for the kick in the junk or it would encourage the company to more equally staff various categories.
