To further help clarify:

Buffer = difference between original line credit and 75 hrs (line guarantee) IF line credit < guarantee.

- Considered free money.

- You don’t lose the buffer but you might not get it paid out. This is the drop, then pickup, scenario described above.
Q: does picking up OT / JA get treated the same as picking up off the trip board in this scenario?

- Dropping trips below 50% original line credit value nullifies guarantee (thus buffer), leaving only line credit to be factored in pay.
Q: what happens to guarantee / buffer if one picks up to get back above 50%?

Q: If I do a trip trade with OT that results in less credit (assuming we are under a buffer scenario) is this treated the same as dropping credit via the trip board?

If anyone knows the answers to these questions offhand, TIA. If not, I’ll dig into it and post what I find.
