Global reserve is easy anyway. Sit at home and don't fly usually. Then get a call out the day before giving you plenty of commute time.
I think for global reserve its crazy to not have moveable RDOs.
In any case, they STILL get their days off. If RDOs get moved, they get them later in the month as days off.
I understand the need to have SOME RDO's Globally (as I've already stated), just not 6. How many did sUA have previously? CAL had 4 Moveable Days for all Reserves.
It makes it harder to proactively plan for life events with your family when half of your days off are on the hook to be reshuffled.
