The assigned trip conflicted by the reserve GS, gets put back through coverage. In this case, it went out as a five day GS to a reserve trying to roll thunder. I ran into him on one of the layovers and he was thrilled. Win win for all!

Following a vacation day, what’s the earliest you can be assigned a SC or trip assuming you have several on call days post vacation?
Found it in the SRH - report NET 18 hours after the end of a vacation day.

Just returned from an extended (7 weeks) period of sick leave. I called in well at 5:50am today which is day 1 of a 4 day block of reserve. I see in MiCrew a 3 day on my schedule starting at 7ish am. I haven’t acknowledged in MiCrew or ICrew, nor has CS attempted to call me. Aren’t they required to attempt to notify me phone? What if they don’t?

I searched this question because I am sure it has been answered before, but the search function wasn't very helpful.
Newbie question: I would really prefer to minimize the amount of flying I get while on reserve if I can help it. Doing short call doesn't bother me (I live very close to the airport) but more than anything I would just like to avoid getting assigned the early AM short call. Is it a good strategy to YS short call starting at a better hour, just to avoid getting the less desirable short call slots? I am very junior so I figure I will be getting lots of short call anyways?
