So if you're on LCR, you are dead to them at 0800 Saturday, or 1800 if you're on SCR.

I am confused with the first paragraph's last sentence. What does it mean "if you don't start duty before 2000..."? If I start a duty period (FDP or SCR) that runs past 2000 Saturday, then I will not have 30 rest in last 168.
Also, ...on my first day of reserve, I got assigned SC at 1100. Did my duty begin at 0000 (no rest comment on schedule) or is the first 11 hours of that first day considered rest?
