Lets put it a few ways and you decide what you are paid.

reserve:
Even if you are assigned a trip then call out sick, you are only paid and credited from your sick bank for the reserve credit per work day. Not each day if some were off days, but not X or * days.

line holder:
You are paid and credited from your sick bank for lost flying, not days. Ala 21 hrs trip over four days, 21hrs from your sick bank. This holds true for all trips.
