Same thing but the end of the month, do I have to leave the last 4 days of the month on call or can I have x-days until the 28th and then be on call for 29,30,31 (with the possibility of Jan. 1 being the 4 day)?
I haven't bid reserve since it came to PBS. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,

What are you doing the 30th? If you are on duty, PBS will look back to ensure the 4 day requirement is met.
As for the last four days, you can be on call 1, 2, 3, etc on call. Again, the program will look back to the previous month when awarding your next months schedule (this is something that you want to keep in mind when bidding for a given month....if you need one of the first days off during a month, make sure that you are not on reserve for one day at the end of the previous month).
Hope this helps. You can PM me for more details if you like.
