Why? If it's because you don't feel like spending extra time away from home, then good for you.
We aren't in negotiations so draft trips are certainly not off limits. By taking one you aren't hurting any of your fellow pilots. We are definitely overmanned and it's only going to get worse until the economy turns around. Anyone that thinks otherwise is just being unrealistically optimistic.
