copy, do uou by chance know the min turn from block in to report the next day? With all the IT bafoonery they have us at 10:01 rest into a 4 leg day. I tried to find it but was unable, and would like some good ammo(7n31 or maybe m62) before i go toe to toe with the goons(aka scheduling)

pro tip: wait until you're in your room, ready for bed, then make the call

Stand your ground on required rest, regardless of who is pushing back. And be careful not to pressure other crew, even inadvertantly. And if you are wondering if you might be fatigued, you probably are. The Fatigue process is very easy and pain-free.

Did have them once do it as a 30 minute show to go. But we weren't ready after 30, and went when we were.

Absoultely. Also, if you call the Duty Pilot to move your report back, they might push back gently. Once after a crazy day, I got a "Well, Crew Tracking may want to negotiate that a bit..." Me: "Well, I tell you what, I will be in the lobby at XX:XX for pickup". BTW, there was no pickup van at that time, and we had to call for a Lyft.

Never, ever, agree to a "reduced report time." If something happens the first question will be, "Well you normally report 60 minutes prior, the morning of the incident you reported 30 minutes prior, so how much did you rush?" You're not doing yourself any favors.
If we can report 30 minutes prior during an IROP, why not always report 30 minutes prior?

At what point do LCA trips typically get the "L" designation for OE? I was awarded a couple LCA trips next month but as of now none of them are tagged for OE. Does that mean they likely won't be bought off, or do the OE assignments happen later in the month?

I'd say if it's a week out and they haven't, they aren't. YMMV
