I picked up open time once a few years ago as an FO and got absolutely bamboozled as I was showing up to the airport about to check in. They basically stripped a turn in the pairing and turned a two day from 10 hours of credit at 150% into 6 hours of credit which paid essentially min guarantee. Obviously I would have never wasted my time with that junk, they knew that, so they waited just prior to my report time to make an update.
I never answer the phone from CS on off days and I’ve never picked up an open time trip after that day. Maybe you should stop complaining and do the same. I promise you life is so much easier when you pay no attention to SkyWest Inc. on your off days. They don’t pay us enough anyways to be working on your few days off.
