All relative to the time of year and how much PP is being dished out.

Sure in the summer when guys are getting 100 left and right , then the junior guy can roll the dice at waiting for 100.
Exactly. I’ve seen way too many out of base guys come in and take a trip at 50-75%, even straight time. Most in base guys seem to hold out for 100% on those days with no coverage. But it’s way too hit or miss to predict who’s gonna hold out and who’s gonna say 50% is perfect for my situation.
