You can ask for no reserve on a relief line. Or certain days off. Or certain kinds of trips. And you can drop the whole thing if you don’t like what is sent to you and he reserve grid supports it. They offer a lot of flexibility.

Not exactly, the arbitration award made dropping reserve while you’re a relief holder just like reserve line holders (only one block, outside in, etc...) The way one way around it is to swap the reserve for a trip, then subsequently drop the trip if it’s green. If there’s no trip to swap into, you’re SOL.

And others have said, you can’t drop reserve on relief lines. You’ll have to swap into a trip and drop the trip if it’s green.
Where did you even get this information? Because is nowhere in our contract and only sets people up for anger and disappointment when they don’t “get” what they requested.

The only contractual thing you can request on a REL is a specific block of days off. Asking for “no reserve” on a REL line is as effective as placing a tooth under your pillow for the tooth fairy to come. Same goes for asking for “certain kids of trips”

In general a relief line, today, offers more flexibility than a reserve line.
