That gives an incentive for management to continue with day trips (cheaper for them) and compensates us appropriately should an overnihgt be required. I imagine there will be plenty to volunteer for the premium pay and covefrage wont be an issue (heck i would take a few here and there). But I am happy to leave a little money on the table in favor of being home at night!
You do realize that they save a very large amount of money on hotels with our day trip model.. if anything it should be the opposite of what you’re saying from strictly a financial stand point.
