So using alcohol wipes or sani-com wipes to clean the EFB mount, melting the material and requiring the 20k - 40k window to be replaced and now multiple times is way more expensive than the cost savings of not picking up OT. Drop in bucket so think big picture here.

What I am getting at here is the day to day costs of the operation far out weigh what money would be saved by by not picking up OT. There are so many pieces to this vastly complex puzzle.
Not picking up OT is not going to bring pilots back, its just going to force junior pilots to be forced into a junior man on their day off. They will still be paid a premium for the junior man but their QOL will take a big hit.

If there's $10,000 of open time and no one picks it up, reserves on our overstaffed lists will fly it and the company spends $0 extra. Can someone do the math and explain how that brings furloughs back?
It would be different if we were understaffed. We aren't.

The same thing happened at Piedmont.
There was a ton of open time, a few people abusing the system so they removed open time and assigned all the open flying to reserves.
