I’m not for negotiating anything for PSC commuting, but what is your time worth? With the current policy, I usually go up for my trips 6 hours beforehand. With PSC that was down to 2 hours beforehand, so let’s say I lose 4 hours per trip of my time without PSC. For round numbers sake, if I make $250/hour (and I charge that with my side business) every trip costs me $1000 of my time. If you were to take a 1% pay raise in exchange for PSC and assuming you made 300k at Delta that would be an extra $3000/year. With this hypothetical you would be “in the red” as far as the worth of your time in less than a month (4th trip).
