I, and my original sim partner, have had about 30 days off in a row before. The contract minimum between days off is I think 5. But, a lot of guys, like me, have waived the minimum days off in between, because it can affect what line you are awarded (if you work to a few days from the end of the month, and want a line that starts on the 1st, you will not get it if there are less than 5? days off...I want bidding flexibility, so I waive the days off).

We have 13/14 days off, depending on the length of the month. Sometimes you end up with less days off, sometimes more.


Nothing. There is no communications from the union regarding the new contract. There are elections coming up for new officers.
