Or, assigned a trip on reserve that flies on your off days during the transition from a month of reserve to a month of line (I know that technically isn't an IA but it's still working on days you thought you had off).
Does anyone know how common these methods are? I'm not saying they don't happen, just wondering if anyone has had this happen to them?
