White slipping over the remaining footprint of your original rotation to replenish sick time is easily the greatest sucker’s clause in our contract.
Seems like I called in well for a trip prior to the end of the footprint so that I could pick up a WS 7 day military charter trip to the UAE. The sick call created the block hour reduction overhead so that the WS paid like a GS for the same number days worked. Funny how that is. Flying internationally, when you only work 10-12 days a month but are bumping up on block hour limits, I'm sure nobody would ever call in sick using IMSAFE to make block room.
I know with a sick, you go to the bottom of the list for GS, but have they changed it for WS too, I don't remember?
