And this: I bypassed a SC pickup and then got assigned a 0600 FSB awhile ago. Done with that. I now have a standing Smart Pickup request in Crew Companion to automatically pickup any SC 0600 and later.

No, NOT ADD PAY!

MPG credit.

Most times transparent but not always.

Sorry to point out the fine print.

I wish someone would point out how our pay system works. I have no clue. I believe there are a lot of pilots like me.

I flew one 3 day trip and sat SC 4 times last month. The rest of the month a spent at home with my family sleeping in my own bed.

And I still think the reserve rules need to be fixed........

Exactly, that should have been worth an extra 8 hours for those 4 short calls. FSB should be 5 hours added to MPG for every single one.

Only if we get 15/16 days off a month. And no more RDOs. They are all HDO. Then that'll do just fine.
