So currently there aren’t enough pilots on property willing to staff the left seat. I heard through the rumor mill that the 3 most junior pilots in the last class with prior qualifying flight time were “forced” into CA positions. If it hasn’t already started, it will soon.
I don't think the 8 ball has gotten a CA spot yet. Until that happens, CA spots have been voluntary. I hope the union is watching the NH classes and prevening an abridgement of seniority if the company tries to force a NH to take a CA spot if they're the last one legal for it when there are FO spots still available to choose from.
