There is no real concern. They go by occurrences for the most part. Super Bowl Sunday is one of the bigger sick days of the year. That might bring more attention if someone had a poor sick leave record. One thing you want to avoid if possible is calling in sick after getting assigned a trip on reserve.

Just to not hit the consecutive days trigger that requires a note. I think its 15 days? Anyway I don't think giving them advance notice while still on your days off would count as that. But, since middle days off do count as that then I'm not 100% sure.

That is the case. To Han, My recommendation is call in sick when you’re sick. If you are unsure if you’ll be sick the next morning you can always call in well. You only get charged a pro-rated portion of the reserve guarantee for each reserve day you are out sick. If you call in well before 1200 you don’t get charged sick time for that day. You’d be more likely to hear something “ie good faith basis verification” if you called in sick after they gave you an assignment. Definitely don’t let the fear of reprisal effect your sick call. Good faith basis verification, although irritating, is not that big of a deal, and then doesn’t count toward your unverified time. Just my opinion.

As a line holder when you call in sick, do you lose the credit time and only get pay time? Or does it just say the same single pay and credit as if you actually did the trip.

Swap with the pot question:
How soon before the trip starts will a swap with the pot be accepted? Ie if I have a blind swap in for any 4 day trip starting today will it go through?
