[QUOTE=todd1200;3614009]My guess is he drops his schedule via the tradeboard and then VDAs the whole month. Works great if you get a called a couple times, but if they don't call, you stay home with no pay.
Not even close I’ve done my 18 days of reserve for two months now not a call and last month not looking like much there either. And yes I’m on VDA and watching for premium time where I can on my days off. Still nothing. I would love to drop my schedule and be senior enough to get a VDA call but unfortunately I will never be that senior.

Either way my beard is getting long and my 2 day visit to JBU is rapidly approaching 😂😅🥲

Why suggest we should slow hiring when you could just bid a line?
