I try to list VDA if I really have nothing going on, but your phone will never ring during the week and I don't want to burn my weekends. I always find that if there is an RSA (very rare 190 FO in BOS) it's on the weekend.. and again, I don't want to burn them, that's why I bid reserve.

I have made some extra money by picking up a Hybrid (if they are good) and then hustling all month, and then back on Reserve the next.

But-- beware. I held a hybrid in December with the thought that if they saw 110 hours of projected credit on the DRO, I probably wouldn't get used on most of the RSV days. I was totally wrong-- I ended up working 10 out of 13 reserve days. Also if you are a commuter it is SCL only with a hybrid. No option for LCL so really only works for those in base.
