I dropped a 3 day trip beginning of the month, picked up a 3 day green slip over the same days, then had commuting problems (2 gate returns on a company flight) which resulted in me getting rerouted before my first leg (a contractual no-no). The result was triple pay or a 54 hour 3-day.

The next month I put in a GS request and checked the box to award on duty. Landed to have an arcos email offering me 3 different trips. Saw all 3 went junior to me so called scheduling. They apologized and added 10:30 to my time card. I then was able to still GS which I didn't do until the following weekend.

Those were my two feel-good summer stories this year. I know there's thousands of them out there.
