If the contract explicitly said anything about CS calling out RAPs to standby instead of making an effort to staff ready reserve through daily reserve scheduling, then it either wouldn't be a discussion or it wouldn't be happening.
If it's a contract thing, then it's down in the differences in interpretation and pushing words to their denotative limits.
I can see why you would think that but I was a little ticked that you were saying that you needed a doctorate or whatever to understand the contract. I’m tired of letting guys know they are needlessly getting hosed on simple stuff when it would take one ready reserve shift to read the reserve section of the contract twice. When crew scheduling is desperate they do desperate things, like lie to you. It’s your job to preserve your quality of life. Remember, they know New York is super junior, everyone is on probation, and staffing sucks. Do you think they are always being straight up with you. Don’t be defeatist about your ability to read words. Rant over
