Would you have given away 22hrs of vacation pay for an SRL?

There will be over 300 pilots on reserve in my BES in May. Will be hard to get even two SCs. Not that many days at in a crash pad. Plus this from the company, "Due to the schedule reductions, missed trips due to commuting issues will not count as an absence in the Absence Management Policy during this COVID-19 crisis." Might be worth a roll of the dice for the 1-2 SCs I will have in May. Any open trip will get immediately picked up.
