That whole law of unintended consequences… your example very well coulda caused the crappy four days I got hammered with last month where I got a SC conversion and then subsequent two day and then was put on SC following that trip and had to go fly a crappy turn which likely came from some other broken up trip. I signed up for this job and I’m not complaining that I have to work my entire point in all of this is that there could be many ways to work around this that makes life easier for all but I get it as humans we tend to look out for numero uno and only see life through our own lens. People PCS all the time and have no issues with whatever those calls are called VRU or whatever but in the handful of other times it’s a non starter which I get cause hey it’s in the contract but talk about wanting their cake and eating it too.
Do tell, what are these ways? Do they involve letting CNO be notification for trips? If so the quid would have to be huge to make up for the 8 extra days off I had last year.

BTW I hate the SC carpet bombing too, but that’s more of an attempt to reduce the PB days the company despises so much (I used 5 in December along with 5 vacation days to get the whole month off). If you want to put more restrictions on SC I’m 100 percent on board with that.
