in fairness, last summer was considerably better than previous year. But roster changes remain an issue, mostly due to poor schedule planning.
also, I don’t think if you go sick or fatigued once that they will remove any of the extra money. I think that provision is there to prevent extremes such as being sick for 3 months and expecting to keep the extra money. Let’s see if there are any reports of people having money deducted at the end of the period.
