If you are number 1 on the seniority list....works just fine, but productivity gives when you are the bottom guy are cumulative and catastrophic.

On one hand, plenty of pilots who went NQAT or UNA saw their paychecks drop considerably. So..GS good, yes?
On the other hand, having all that time off and still being able to pay the bills on a reduced salary? (not everyone, I know) Maybe life is more than being able to brag about GS.
Based on the rolling thunder and GS grabbing on some fleets/bases, I'd say GS are just as popular as ever. The end of summer numbers will tell the tale.

if Delta awards it to you via your PBS bid, it pays extra. You pick it up off open time or pilot swap board, it doesn’t.
As for GS, it should pay like an IA...double with no trigger. If I’m picking up over time to help the company out of a jam, there should be no trigger.
