I bid reserve to get the days off I want.
Next month I have 3 x 3 day weekends and 1 x 5 day weekend off.

6 rsv days max with 2 days off in between is a bidding restriction imposed by having far 117 30/168 limits.
there ways to drop this down to one day off in between rsv blocks if you get released before noon on your last day and call scheduling to see if they will move a rsv day from another block.
was able to work
6 on, 1 off, 6 on, 1 off, 5 on, 11 or 12 off
I used this as a commuter since I couldn’t sit long call from home my first 4 months. This gave me a good chunk of days off and minimized my commutes.
