That’s not entirely accurate. If you are on days off as a rsv guy, you can put in for a voluntary day off (VDO) assignment. If one comes up and you get it, you get the trip at 50% premium as long as you don’t go below min number of days off. While I was on 1st year pay, I VDO’d just about every day in Nov and got called just about every day. I had to have my days off restored and ended up getting Thanksgiving off with all the days they had to restore. Even if you don’t break min guarantee for the month, you will have the 50% add pay in addition to your 74 hours of rsv min plus any unused SC and FSB. Our system takes some learning if you want to break mins, and I’m hoping we make some serious changes to our rsv rules but it can be done. Btw I did that not living in domicile. Every domicile, seat and fleet is different so ymmv. I said it earlier and I say it again look on the end of year salary thread and get a feel for what guys are realistically making. Good luck
