I was in that situation a few years ago and tried to play the junior man card and they weren't having it. My situation might have been a little different though. I wasn't in a one in 7 issue. I just got held over into a day off. They brought me in the next morning and then gave me a 12 hour day on my day off. They gave me my day back, but gave me regular pay and stated that I was not junior manned because I wasn't a lineholder.
