man are you lucky to fly with so many happy guys. On the two fleets I have been on in the last year there are many many unhappy campers. Still, if you say everyone is happy in your cockpit then I guess they are....do they laugh at all your jokes too;-)

not sure if your question is serious - I will assume it is.
If you have a G day it is guaranteed. The only way they can force it off you is if you are down route and the roster changes. If you are on O days they can reschedule it for anything up to the day before, subject to 12 hours notice (ie if it was an 8am start they need to tell you by 8pm day before). You are not required to be contactable except on reserve and post duties on 8929.
CC guys are just doing their job - if they ask you to help them out you can say no. Please PM me with any specific details or call me,
cheers
