You’re second paragraph is exactly what I said. So if the system awards all the days on and off I want and I tell it I want R11 (RIP) and it can award R11 on all of my preferenced days but one, I’m getting dreaded R3 (insert most hated RAP) for the entire month. Even though I could have had R11 on all but one day. Instead of giving me R11 on all but one day and R11 on one less desirable day, it’s going to give me that one day I wanted along with all the others perhaps and give me R3 for all of them. I’d much rather 99% of the days I want and R11 than 100% of the days I want and R3. That’s more than unfortunate that’s pure trash.
Am I right about this? This is how it was explained to me.
