You are responsible for the trip assigned to you when they leave you the voice mail. However, you have to acknowledge no later than 3 hours prior to show.

Chente, given the choice of NYC, MSP, DTW, MEM, and ATL from PHX where would you choose to commute to? I'll be commuting from TUS but PHX is my backup.

Report can be no earlier than 12 hours from first "attempted" contact.
So leaving you a message is attempted contact. You never have to answer your phone on reserve......not even on short call. Even though I have had some schedulers get their drawers in a bunch over that one. |

Ie. if they give you an assignment in the middle of the night for 12 hours later, are they going to call you or just put it on your schedule and you have to acknowledge within 3 hours of show? Obviously you can see how not getting a call can hose you when you wake up and check your schedule.

When on LC or SC, they will call you no matter what time it is when you have an assignment. It's up to you to acknowledge the trip by 3 hours prior either by calling them back, using the VRU or online.

Yep, they always call. I usually don't answer when I'm on LC and then I acknowledge the trip online. When on SC, I typically just answer the phone to acknowledge the trip.
I never answer on days off or long call. Always answer on short call. |

I just answer both. In reality it serves me no good to not answer. The trip is mine either way.
