I made the mistake of answering my phone halfway across the country and the only thing that saved me was they were able to find the next guy in line to fly the trip. Scheduling wasn't happy about it and referenced that exact part of the PWA. Don't shoot the messenger. If you can find a reference in the PWA that says you're allowed to turn down a greenslip that you've acknowledged (for any reason) let me know. I'm all ears.
I don't....wait...what?? Cycle, my man. I said the EXACT same thing you just said....YOU HAVE NO CLAIM TO REFUSE A GS, it't NOT a proffer. I'm not at ALL sure where you're interpreting that I'm suggesting it is. The ONLY time you can say "sorry, love to but can't" is outlined in the SRH, it's in your content locker, concerns alcohol consumption, unrealistic distance, no access to transportation and being the sole provider of child care. Help me out here, how is my statement divergent from yours??
