Like you said, it has to be worded right, and so far I have little faith about our lawyers ability to do so. That SUCKS.
Nope, that was the double edged sword of temping. Even if the #1 ATL guy temped into NYC for some reason, he bid #last in NYC while he temped. I never did it, but seems to me it was mostly commuters sitting reserve in a different base so they could get the company to pay for it. IE, in your case, you could temp into ATL on the months you would get stuck on reserve in NYC so the company would have to pay for your ATL hotel.

But, as you said, making sure our lawyers got it all worded correctly would be vital. Any missing piece screws it up. Plus, as I said before, it's all moot without a monthly AE process.
