That is the same question that boggled my mind as well back in 2012. Guys wanted stand-ups to be codified and structured in the contract,
and at less pay than what they paid back then and now(10:30).
They actually wanted to take a paycut when flying them in order to get them spelled out in the contract.....It was absurd.
As many others have been saying, the company builds these types of trips all the time
right now. I see them quite often in my catagory as well. I have even flown some of them, either as reserve or green slip. They just have to pay 10:30.
They company doesn't want to have to pay 10:30 unless they have no choice/short staffed. And there are actually people out there that are willing to do them for less than 10:30.
