Coming off rest tomorrow for one day of reserve. Going NQ on 31st. Does the start of NQ count as a “hard non fly day” in reference to 23.S.7.F for being released no later than 12:00 base time. No trip assigned before 3:00 this afternoon either. I’m thinking I’m not usable for tomorrow but can’t find a PWA reference for how a NQ day is defined for this situation.

I heard an urban legend that DAL legal has pursued harassment criminal charges (sometimes even years later, once the truth is found) against pilots for "lying" about not having a pilot certificate, after having been involved in a verbal or otherwise altercation with a DAL employee such as a gate agent. Some of these prosecutions have taken place years after the actual event, once the truth about being a pilot is found out. The theory being said pilots lied to avoid being reported to the FAA.

I am curious if Delta will fire me a they find out about the axe murders I committed in California. Thankfully CA is a progressive state and my ridiculously long 6 year sentence was reduced to time served and 30 days at county. This allowed me to quickly resume my flying career. GoJets hired me without any concerns if that might influence Delta!

Reserve vs. Line in a vacation month. Is one better than the other? Thanks

personally I almost always bud reserve in vacation months
If more pay for less work is your top priority, bid RES. If it's a high ALV and your primary vacation, you could be awarded a RES line that pays 87-ish hours off the bat.

If money is your top priority, bid a line.You will be able to WS more. (VACA is not "Credit" once the line is awarded.)
