  • If you cannot build a line up to those hours, then you can have it award you a hybrid line with a few reserve days.
  • Or, you can have it award a straight reserve line.
There are no changes at all, other than even more junior people could hold a partial line instead of no line at all with vacation and vacation low.
The wording is convoluted. It looks like you cannot get paid min guarantee if you set your window below 75 and PBS awards a line valued at less than 75. The hybrid line is going to take QOL away from some people on the line between reserve and lineholder.
