Okay you PBS guru's. Answer me this. I have December vacation 21-27. I'm going to try and slide it to 23-29. If I bid this on a reserve line, will it go thru? I ask this because the minimum days block of on call is 4 days. This would only give me two, depending on what I bid for January. Thanks,
Denny

It should work fine. Sometimes, it's also a good way to have a uselessly short period of availability, if bidding REG the following month.

You have rich people problems. Lol. I'm trying to bid any way I can to not work 10 days straight or 9 out of 10 thanks to a ****ty CQ. CQ needs to pay 5:15 per day. It usually messes up my whole schedule, but this time it is happening the worst time possible, a couple days after Christmas.
If it's any consolation, the instructors don't want to be there either.

Under set condition tab. Slide vacation. + numbers are later in the month, - numbers are earlier. Can do an exact number of days or a range. Range goes to the farthest away from origional and works back to origional position if necessary. Search for it in the gouge.

Denny,
I believe vacay slide operates first and is independent of res/reg requirements (not 100% sure on this one and a little too jet-lagged in Japan to look it up just now)... just looks at coverage available.
Good luck to you and me both... trying to do the same thing in the Atl... been very successful with the slide thingy the last two years, but a lot more guys are wise to it now.
Hockey and Buzz,
Did youse guys bid your 5 golden days for recurrent training months? I've never had a problem avoiding the week after Xmas, even though I've been very junior in my category...
However, when I forgot to bid my golden days, I have gotten less than stellar training assignments.
