When is a standby not a standby.
Current roster matrix allows for certain circumstances where crew are paid a disruption payment for a change in their roster. One colleague was notified of an impending call out from standby the day before the standby was scheduled to start. He reasoned that technically this was a change to the roster and politely suggested the appropriate payment was due. Ops countered that he was being called out from standby; the day before?!
