Yes.
We are being watched and they want us to be fully rested before you do STBY, RSV or fly your line. You cannot commute to CVG on the inbound DHL flight which leaves at 8 pm (for example), then expect to be on duty and fly your trip that same night. You will have to commute in that morning, sleep all day to be rested that evening. Basically you're wasting an extra day off.
Some airlines only have RJ service into CVG. Imagine 12 B737 crews all trying to fight for jumpseats to CVG at about the same time on the same day.
