I agree, I am getting tired of short call on day 1 and not getting used. I've tried to request short call again for the next few days, NO LUCK.... I've tried to yellow for a trip, no luck. I've decided to go home and at 3pm I get a 4 am shot call, I had to get back on the same airplane and head back to DTW. ***? I know I choose to commute.... FYI I've been based in all FNWA bases since I've been here, I am not going to move my family every 4 months!
