What don't you understand. Paying out 200% means nothing. And yes if pilots didn't pick up OT or work on their days off it would hurt the company more than paying 200%. You are truly lost and you obviously weren't around the last time the Envoy pilot group was Fuqed in the ass. Swayne Martin is shooting himself in the foot and doesn't even realize it. I'd go further to say Swayne Martin and pilots like him are out for themselves. You're not gonna be an FO forever. And if they have plenty of FO's why are they offering OT? You truly are lost and need help understanding your part as a pilot in group of pilots.
I really hope that flow works out for you because it's really gonna suck sitting at Envoy getting paid less than your wholly owned brother and sisters.
Sorry, but your post doesn't make any sense.
I don't think you understand how open time works, and what it means.
You're saying that when I pick up a trip at 200% that would otherwise be assigned to a reserve next day for 0%, it's better for the company? That really does not compute.
Or get that commuter hotel out of base when you pick up OT out of domicile.
Or even better, during 200%, you can have the company pay for a hotel room in domicile. That surely helps the company too. I guess they collect hotel points for reservations?
Your logic is so flawed I can't even begin to argue with you.
