Thanks

Only answering number 3, but it will take you awhile to have that sort of control over your schedule. Would you like it off randomly or regularly? At +1.5 years I can usually get 8-10 days off in a row, either line holder or reserve, if I work the swap system. If that crosses into another month, maybe I can get another couple days. I was just looking at past bid awards for December and only the most senior bidders, without vacation, could have very long (2 weeks+) blocks without working. There are way too many variables. The biggest challenge is holding weekends off. Once you can do that, you can work some schedule Kung fu.
