Ya, it's not that simple. GS aren't bad in and of themselves, it's what comes along with GSs going out like they do now. Namely, lack of staffing and the ability to drop trips/manipulate your schedule and/or the lovely reroute to the cush trip your seniority allowed you to bid. I'd much rather have blue days every day of the year than have lots of GSs. GS are meant to be the occasional thing that happens to fill last minute schedule changes/sick call, not something the company just relies on to keep the operation going. So sure, you can say don't fly GS if you don't want, but it's missing the bigger issue.
