Thank you phatigued,
May i also ask (this may sound nieve) do you ever get reassigned? Do you ever worry about answering the phone on your day off if it's crew schedule?
At AA we all have 5-7 days a month that are your scheduled days off, that if you answer the phone and are sober then "Tag you are it" We call them DO's.
There's just a bunch of discussion amongst AA pilot whether SWA work rules could actually work for us or against us. Mind you it is just discussion on our union message board.
I don't know any SWA pilots and was just interested.
