So this last week I hung out at home with no reassignment.... So far it looks like I'll be doing that again this next week.

I don't know if there's a way to figure out who is bidding for the same line you are but if I could, I would probably avoid bidding with an IOE captain. I actually don't like to sit around for days on end. I wind up wasting too much time on forums....
If i were you and didnt have anything tying you to the house, I would escape on a fun trip. I had an IOE guy in December, and was able to go to Cancun for 4 days. went with a friend, all inclusive, cost me $225 total. would have gone on another trip but my other displacement was too close to xmas.

Take full advantage of your extra days off.
