Not true, except for the very specific carveiuts mentioned in the prior couple of posts to this one. I've done it many times, especially in the summer where you have mostly black days of reserve coverage plus lots of trips in open time.

After all, so long as the days are identical, the company is no better or worse off if you swap trips.

Perhaps I'm wrong, but I've swapped same day for same day many times, no matter the numbers.
