And just for clarification, I don't have to answer the phone on a day off even if I VDO'ed it? And they can't just put something on my schedule without asking first?
5-E-8-b VDO When a Reserve is contactable (i.e, he is
required to be phone available), he may not withdraw the conversion at the time of assignment or between 1100 and 1500.
This blurb is on page 67 of the UPA. It is an ALPA highlight (clarification) from the April 8th version. My take is...if you VDO, you are on reserve. So, I would answer the phone.
