They have "junior manning" but that's a terminology holdover from the past... today it just means "voluntary overtime". You don't have to accept it.
But that's for your days off... they can however do almost any sort of reflow within your original trip footprint, and can be pretty creative about it. A few years ago there was a popular long (30-ish hours) overnight at an outstation where a lot of folks lived. The station was close to a big hub, and the company started reflowing folks to work on the "off" day in the middle of the trip.
