Most you’ve ever made from critical?

Currently a FA that is working on transitioning into becoming a pilot.

I’m constantly hearing stories from the CA’s and FO’s I fly with about critical pay and the stories about how they’ve gotten paid 1000% (yes not even joking) of their pay at times. It seems bizarre to me and the way they negotiate getting paid insane rates.

Would love to hear the story of the most you’ve ever gotten paid for a pairing, and maybe how much extra on average you get paid per month from picking up critical.
