Oh, and I'd ask for short term parking authorization.
I only do that if it's a sweet short notice GS benefiting me ......... Trip assigned via SC, Camp Creek it is.

The short term still benefits me on the way home.

couldn’t they have just taken me off SC, and assigned me the rotation? It’s a 4-day and I’m in the 4-Day bucket? > 18 hours to report

can they tell when you have checked your schedule via MiCrew? … asking for a friend

They have to follow the "reserve ladder" priority. Yes, they can see your logins but it doesn't matter because you are only contactable when you are contactable. This is why I use the first 2 hour SC provision every SC.

They can't (shouldn't) contact you on an off day. Assuming you start long call at 0000 you become contactable and could be given a trip that reports as soon as 1000 on your first LC day IF it was placed by noon the day prior.

Without looking at your schedule, my guess is that you have a day 1 LC assignment, not a 30 minute SC report and you won't get SC credit.

I screen cap my schedule (actual iCrew not MiCrew) just after noon (like 12:00:02) on my last off day (or 12 prior to non fly day ending if not a midnight start) and just roll with that.

I live close enough that I can finish my workout, (they invariably call with 5 minutes to go on the Peloton) shower, and get to EWR in normal traffic in under 2 hours. If they call during rush hour/bad weather/special event for JFK or LGA, I get there when I safely can, but I don't just sprint out the door either.

That’s not legal past 1200 going into your first LC day. Assuming the next-day SC was assigned right before noon, then once noon hits that assignment is locked in. A rotation reporting before 1800 would have to be given as a SC assignment. With any SC or rotation report on your first day before 1800 you aren’t really even contactable. Unless you acknowledged the assignment in advance then at midnight your rest is considered momentarily broken but you go right back into pre-report rest of up to 18 hours.

So same as I said about placement at noon the day prior for pre 1800 LC trip? An automated call at 0001 is the norm if the placement wasn't acknowledged prior. A LC can supercede day 1 non-FRMS SC with proper timing. I think we're saying the same thing.

I have never gotten a call for any rotation or SC assignment that reports before 1800 on my first day of LC, and I almost never pre-acknowledge such assignments. My bigger point was that he was a SC pilot on the trip coverage, thus the rotation was given as a SC assignment and he will get SC count credit for sitting the SC (not the 1:00 SCC).
