Also of note, if you have a PR or partial day off as payback from a GS whilst on reserve, they can assign a trip nlt 09+00 before your payback time ends. So even though you are off, 1500 does not apply, nine hrs prior to the end of the payback applies.

Make sense?

2. You've put in a yellow slip, which includes lowering your raw score. If the report is more than 12 hours, you have to take the trip. Less than 12 hours, it's a proffer. So, they could call you at 1800 for a 0600 report.

If you're already a day into you reserve days, then the 1500 time doesn't mean anything. Checking your schedule at 1500 only applies when coming of an X-day.
This is true. However, you are never under any obligation to answer your phone on a day off. Therfore, you are only required to accept a YS trip with 12+ hours of notice IF YOU answer your phone. If they can't contact you they have to remove it & put it back in open time.

Lesson learned....don't answer your phone.

So if an interviewee receives a conditional employment offer on Day 1, could it be withdrawn on Day 2 after the pysch & med tests?

Just seems slightly cruel to offer the job after Day 1 before the pysch test. Also, since so many guys who got the job were told their EKGs were abnormal, is it possible said situation is another test to see how one reacts to that?

I guess one isn't certain he/she has the job until they're on the line, or at least in Indoc.

There is a reason it's called "conditional," haha. I prefer it that way... sure was nice knowing I passed the HR and stuff right there. The only thing that you're really not sure about is how you did with the shrink.

Am I reading correctly that the earliest they could assign a rotation/short call is 5 hours after the end of your PB/PR day (if assigned nlt than 9 prior.)

Example - PB/PR day ends at 15:00 - if they assign a rotation/short call nlt than 06:00 (9 hours priort to PB end,) it can begin no earlier than 20:00?

I know the earliest they can assign a rotation/short call on your first reserve day is 05:00 (if its assigned by 15:00 on the last x day.)

That is how I read that.

I guess the more appropriate question is how soon would one find out otherwise? Right away? 1-2 weeks after? Is no news good news?

Sorry. Got a buddy who passed Day 1. I'm excited for him, and just wondering.
