A reserve may put in for a green slip (premium trip that would pay 2x pay for line holder or straight time above guarantee plus future days off for reserves.)
If a reserve gets the GS, they get the hours above guarantee, and the next days off (of scheduled on call days) of equal number of the trip. If they have no on call days left in the month, you get PayBack days, PB, which are very useful for dropping future trips, future on call days, or even extra vacation (a subject worthy of an small pamphlet) on how to use effectively.
Yeah - wording issue on my part - sorry about that. The guy I was talking to as I was writing the prior post described pretty much what you just did above.
