Yep, F me for making some extra money that's allowed per the contract, right?
Pre-contract I didn't do a damn thing outside of my originally scheduled trip. Did my job just as the union asked and that's all. Post contract I still won't ever touch an RSA but VDAs I'll do all day long.

Just a hunch, but I bet moving forward you won't see as many VDA opportunities systemwide. The new strategy for most guys will be to snatch up a RSA and hopefully not get called prior to when the 10am normal reserves start. Also the upcoming premium open-time pot will make it hard for some to be patient and wait it out on VDA.
Only problem with that is a lot(not always) scheduling doesn’t put out an RSA until they already have a trip for you.

Lately they've been posting it almost 24 hours early knowing that a good chunk of their reserves for the following day can't start until after 10am. I think you'll see more RSA's go unused then before going forward. Who knows though.

It’s would be dumb for someone to do the first rsa of the day. Almost a guarantee of being used

But the obvious and primary purpose of this bid is to make slots available for new hires.
