Let me preface by saying I have no sorrow about the company woes towards PB days. It is a monster of their self inflicted behavior. Honestly I don’t want it changed, despite the fact I don’t bid reserve.
however…if I were to spitball here…let’s pretend this issue is the last item standing. What if green slips on reserved paid above guarantee for the entirety of the trip (ie a 4 day that spilled into 2 on call days still paid 4 days) AND it was pay PLUS credit. In that scenario, the worry of being on call 18 days plus working x amount on top is lessened by the simple nature you get credit and get closer to being full? Once again, not advocating for it, but would something like this be an a trade off we could stomach granted that everything else was a major gain? Thoughts?
