Default Green slip haters

5 busted trips in open time, zero reserves available, IROPS going on, it’s only the 18th, you got time to get the trigger later......sure, go ahead and white slip. Honey badger don’t care, I’m already working anyway.

14,500 pilots, 14,500 different bidding/scheduling strategies. You do what works best for you, and let others decide what works best for them.

I don’t get greens, but when g#2 goes out over 10k I think one should be patient grasshopper..... I can’t gs because I’m flying 100hrs straight pay and I did it to myself. You’re right, each their own and I’m not going to pull schedules to see what they are doing, but he probably could have gotten the same trip as a greenie....

There are many strategic reasons to WS when GSs are going out. Don't hate the Playa hate the Game

... my favorite is the senior guy who will feed on WS only after collecting G#1. great tactic but no need to shame the basic WSers.
