I need a bit of advice from some senior (or junior) reserve FOs in JFK...

I'm coming back from the COLA and I decided to bid reserve (this may have been a very big mistake!). Anyway... I should be about #2 or #3 on reserve but I don't know anything about long call cuz I haven't been on reserve since 2007. I live in NYC and my goal is to fly as LEAST as possible... what do I bid??

AND is there a change with the whole call in window the day before - is it considered a "work" day?

Thanks!
