I agree with 'Terrain Inop', but perhaps I need to clarify:
If you're new and on reserve (and follow the contract), its hard to break guarantee.
Once you're a line-holder (regular or relief) you will break guarantee regularly.

They called me for a JA. It paid like 33 hrs for like 6hrs of actual block. I know contractually we are only allowed 5 a year, I thought anyone could get Junior assigned, not just line holders. Either way it was one leg to Boston (day 1 anyway) and oddly enough my Aunt was on that flight and it was delayed a few hours, I had no problem doing it. There was also a crappy 3 day the following day in open time that I would have probably been assigned so it was a win win. I also got move up pay for doing an RWS turn before my call out.

There's so much for me to learn!
