I was thinking of bidding captain ASAP and sit reserve at home.
Yes it's possible, but can go in waves....sometimes senior RES in my category can go 2-3 months and not get used....other months we get abused like red headed step children. Category manning and how much network is pushing the schedule are the main drivers
