Just depends what the schedule is doing and if they need you and what's around.
I'd you stay home, you get paid. If you stay out later or past 12 hours, you get OT or an extra 1.5 days plus your day of pay... Unless it's involuntary then it's more.

And others get tons of OT because of their base/airline options/fleet demand.

That's always a moving target around here. NJA is trying diligently to reduce the number of different types that we have. Most of this is my opinion. I am sure that someone else may have better information.
The Phenom 300 will be around for a while. My opinion is that they are unhappy with the airplane, and would love another option in the light jet category, but changing at this point would further complicate their fleet renewal goals.
The Latitude is shaping up to be the core of the fleet. They are talking huge numbers. It will basically be the replacement for the XL fleet.
The Sovereign will be around for a while longer. It is time to get rid of them, but they are still a workhorse.
The Challenger 350 is proving to be a workhorse also with great reliability.
I really have not paid much attention to the large cabin airplanes to know what the plan is. For right now, I see the Gulfstreams, and Globals sticking around. I don't know about the Falcons and Challenger 650's.

Just updating for those trying to get on as to what the process is as I am seeing it. So, I got the email invite to come up to Columbus in September, as others have said, day one is a panel interview that is split up into a morning and afternoon session with 6 pilots in each, and if that goes well, day two is a sim eval (in what sim or profile I have no idea). They sent me a link to complete a 45 minute online psychological test (I think that may be new). They give you a number to call to set up the airfare and hotel at their expense (which is nice) and they will reimburse you for meals as well. Anyway, that's all I know for sure.
