Well, you are the only one avail so we can schedule reserves until noon on days off.. WTF? It's ridiculous they can do this. They do it all the time now, especially with redeye finishes at 6am..

Long call gets a benefit with the shift, but for a short call it doesn't help.
Wholeheartedly agree here. This is a glaring failure within our contract. I live within 60 miles of my hub airport, so I'm not a commuter, and yet there's still no way I (if I were on Reserve) I would be less than angry as hell to be scheduled into a day off - just because they can!

That has to go away.
