You must be an outlier. I get called all the time, 2am-5am calls are the worst. True a lot of assignments come in the DRO, but I’d say it’s closer to 50/50 for me. Missed a call at 4 am once, woke up at 7am to find they had marked me advised when they left the voicemail. I guess they saved me a UTC, thanks?

I don’t think anyone’s calling you a liar. I think what you need to do is write your ALPA rep an email saying you were assigned a trip 48 hours in advance. Trips stay in open time until DRO starts for the next day. Then you are assigned a trip for the next day during the DRO. After the DRO is done at 8 am they MAY give you a pairing for the NEXT day that shows up in OpenTime if it’s with in The LC call out time. It’s “next day reserve assignment” not “next two day reserve assignment”. Know the contract, call them out when they are not following it. (It may not be the best) but (if you’ve been here a while) you’ve paid a few dollars to have those rules.

Back to my last statement. We all paid alpa a boat load of money. Call them out when they do it wrong because if you don’t you’re making it that much hard on the next person

In my experience on LCR for two months I received two calls right at 14 hours.
Others from my class have received calls.

My experience so far on LCR for the last 5 months has been only 1 phone call to get an assignment and everything else assigned via the DRO.
Had to call them on a few occasions, due to illegal/out of order assignments, which they had to drop from my schedule. You do have to be on top of it and enforce the CBA.

Ok, you made me go back and check it all out again. Looking at the DRO the day the assignment was put on my JC, and the next day when I was on PRL, and the day of the flight, I was the only RSV legal for the trip. There were no other LCR on, and had they assigned it to a SCR, they would have had to delay the flight and perhaps split the trip.
