ATL and DTW have LEC offices (with one staff person each, I think), but I'm sure they don't work weekends.
I'd have to guess most reps are fully able to launch a council update themselves. No, it's not paid...reps don't get paid anything extra. Trip drops for meetings, lounge visit week and any official LEC work (like a representation).
Everything else is on their own time. Waxing poetic in updates, phone calls, emails, etc, which is pretty much what %90 of a reps work is. Taking care of the pilots in the council is primary focus.

This would be the Hotline for the ATL council. I figured as much, but was curious because I thought I read a while back that someone who worked in "communications" or a similar role was getting paid to work from home. It had me wondering if the Hotline was part of that kind of work and if so would sending it out on a Sunday be a way of getting paid by DALPA for shooting the email.
