This hasn’t been my experience at all. I’ve consistently gotten 4 or more days that I wasn’t called in on a RAP, that’s been every month I’ve been here starting in February. One month I had 6 days off extra. Add in double dead head trips that happen often on reserve and I get more days at home. Also, I’ve broken guarantee each month, some by a good margin.
