As an FO I regularly exceeded guarantee pretty handily. Airline pilots don’t like four day trips that start at Oh Dark Thirty. Particularly on weekends . So it wasn’t hard to rack up hours if you had the had the right RAP.

As a CA I only break guarantee if there’s some kind of extenuating circumstances or some training module gets added or something.

They also quit calling for seat support once I hit second year pay. Or maybe I just sucked.
