(try to use the swap board instead) The trip does not disappear, it will still be visible on your line. The gotcha is... that trip counts against your monthly hours. In Dec I got one of these and thought I was on my way to a 110 month.... false. I already had 89 hrs and couldn't pick up any WS. I did find a crappy non commutable, 2day and ended up with 100. It is still a good deal, but not the lotto ticket I thought it was.
Thanks for the info. As a commuter I see this working out to paid time off (if it holds up), which is solid advice.
Hard to know what's out there anyway when iCrew keeps kicking me off. Thought it was just me, but I'm hearing others are having the same problem today and yesterday.
