things constantly change and it's difficult to pin down what kind of schedule you will have on reserve.

there will be times that you will be called for a turn, a two day trip or more but when you return to base, you will be extended for the days you are available on reserve. It's not uncommon but the dynamic constantly changes depending on line holder availability. ie: misconnections, crew sick, late arrival or broken ac at an outstation.

picking up OT on your days off will be difficult since you will be most likely be on reserve for six days straight.
