The 36 is supposedly only due to 117' we also have a few retirements so who knows what the total will be..
As for flex, not sure tbh, I'm a reserve bidder for ease of commuting at my juniority so I don't pay much attention to bid lines.
Thanks,
Yeah I vowed to always bid reserve in Decembers to not miss Christmas with the kids. Unfortunately didn't see the flex coming and being forced back on reserve.... Which is not a bad thing. For me it's like getting paid to be at home 25 days a month or so.... Just not as good on the bank account.
