Can't have 1 immovable only.

There is a proration table listing the days off you get and how many immovable based on your days of actual availability. As an example, have training? Training counts as unavailable days. So if you have TRVL, SIM 1, SIM 2, then you are unavailable 3 days of a month and you are prorated down to only 10 days off in a month with I believe 7 of those being immovable. Vacation works the same way.

crap that s pretty bad!!
so can they just call you the night before on a day off and expect you to show up the next morning? what if you commute? how much notice do they have to give you? do you have to answer your phone on your days off then?

so if they assign you something on that day off do they just give you another day off of their choosing or can you pick one?

that **** s gotta go in the joint contract!!
