Default Need help swapping reserve days off!

Trying to swap some reserve days. To get what I want I would need to create a bucket of 6 days on reserve. The scheduler says they can only create a 6-day bucket when ‘operationally necessary’. What constitutes ‘operational necessity’.

Is there a way around this?

If you talk them into it, run out and buy a lottery ticket, because it's your lucky day...!!

No luck needed especially on the CA side with them being below coverage on every day. Ez pz

Yo OP wait until people call in and then they are well below coverage. Get them to blow you not the other way around. They will be begging for it after one IROPS day
