At another place if two legs of your trip cancel, you either get revised (extra money) or sent home with pay and still get trip guarantee. Here if two legs cancel or get equipment changed, or if your trip ending at 11:30 gets extended into your next trip at 14:20 you get put in sub and if you decline it to go home, you get nothing unless you go to your crashpad in MEM and sit it out. The savings of this benefits the company immensely. The company also saves a few million annually by not having to pay per diem during our long sits on the ground waiting for the sort. Everything about our system form is designed and optimized save them money. The lack of a min daily guarantee saves them millions as well.
