If you get a 1400 SC time, you can call scheduling and tell them that you are using your two hour commute, which means they will not be able to contact you during the first two hours of your SC, so in this case you don't actually have to be in SEA until 1600. But you will be expected to be able to report right away if they call you at 1600. I use it all the time...works great. Also, when you get two hours from the end of your short call, they will usually release you, if you call and use your sexy voice.
That's right, Ferd. Make sure you call them to let them know you will be using it BEFORE you actually use it. I think you have to do it when you acknowledge the shortcall, or shortly thereafter. I also have been told by scheduling that if you use the 2 hour commute coming in that you will not be released two hours early when the short call is over.
I must have had the mean DC9 schedulers as opposed to the awesome 7er schedulers that NWAf16 had.
Why in the heck are you on reserve anyway?
