If you had a 5 day block of reserve I'm not sure you can drop the middle day of it because it would violate the 3 day rule. I'm pretty sure I've been denied a drop even though there was plenty of coverage for this reason.
If somebody knows more, please let me know but I think I've been blocked for this reason.
You still can't violate the reserve rules with the PD. Once you get down to a block of 3 days of reserve, the only way to get rid of the middle day is to drop all three days. The other one that gets you is if you have a stretch of more than 7 days you sometimes cannot drop the middle days because it may create another off day grouping and you are only allowed 4 of those in a 3-99-4 category.
