I don’t know, he has a valid point. I’m pretty new on property but I’ve talked to both CS and ALPA before about this issue. As a guy who lives just far enough from base to have to drive halfway to be in position when on SC, a LC assignment later on while still on SC doesn't absolve you of your SC responsibilities. If I drive home while on SC and I’m out of position and get a call (both sources said that’s perfectly legal) for an assignment and can’t make it in, I’m on the hook. I know this is different but the concept is similar, you can make a solid argument that you’d be fatigued in the morning for that LC assignment, IMO.
