The fact that they can then involuntarily move a third of your days off is an insult. I think that's a deal-breaker for me...
And what makes it even worse as was pointed out somewhere else:

Crew Scheduling can "convert" a pilot from A-reserve (long call) to B-reserve (short call) as they deem necessary.
