Have you seen the RDG schedules? Not everybody is going to hold 8 days of reserve on RDG. In fact they are much worse than that and as a commuter I could/will be commuting to ANC just as much as I would have as a non-RDG bidder.
I think you example is best case scenario but you are still not even factoring in the commute which will add 2 days on each end of that reserve stretch likely.
I would love a part time job WHERE I LIVE so I could go and do something else, but the problem is I will be commuting to Alaska for that part time job.
You probably don't understand since you live there and don't have to commute. And no I cannot move there now since we just bought a house here in SDF.
