The EWR reserve commute was just about to cost me my job because it was going to cost me my family. Fortunately [!?] I got furloughed. Sometimes it's a choice only in the sense that we always have a choice to quit. And if you're on the bottom of the list either from being a new hire or because the furlough line was drawn just below you, that's about the only choice you've got. Reserve rules are way better now than then though. Used to be continuous 24 hour a day SC. Insane.
