Most other airline pilots would work to rule about 6 months before pay negotiations start to give their negotiators some assistance but CX pilots are most definitely not like most other airline pilots.
Captain X has 83 hours. Gets a call to operated on G days for a ULH. 12-15 hours and PX back. Could end up getting over 100 hours and close to double pay with 3 days work. Do you think he is going to give that up for the greater good? You think the senior guys care about you? Trust me they don’t.
People will do what suits them, seen it all before. He/She maybe a cheap hoar but they have a fat wallet. Plus they are intimidated and want to look good to their managers. They don’t care what you think about them.
It’s called “I’m alright Jack”.
I don’t seem to be called on G days. I assume the CC computer has the answer next to my name. I also assume if you are a G days worker, you will be getting calls at ungodly hours, G days/O days, etc.
