i reckon
grivation and
cp dude are on the right track here. just say
no!
i helped out the company once... and i got shafted on my very next roster as thanks. that was also the last time i helped them out.
for a year or so, i politely declined when asked to do a favour. i haven't been called on a 'g' day or an 'o' day for about 8 years since. not once! i also know for a fact, crew control's computer shows that i don't work on 'g' days. and, my career progression has not been hindered in any way whatsoever.
so, you see... there is nothing to FEAR,
captain chaos!
contract compliance is easy!
