Swap Question - O into G

[channis]

Hey swap gods,

Can someone please help me with this??

For a G day swap with an O day. Having met all the other million swap criteria, BUT can CC disapprove by giving a reason "needed to have him or her on O day just incase?"

:ugh::ugh::ugh:

Thanks

Depends on where the O day was placed on the roster.

If the O day was at or close to the end of a trip they probably wouldn't swap it. Gives them another chance to use the excuse "due roster disruption".

Call 8193 (That's CC Supv) and explain your dilemma to him/her. I have done this on numerous occasions and managed to swap it to a G.

If they are still playing 'hard ball', consider speaking to or sending CH a groupwise explaining what you want. There's nothing wrong in asking, at least you can say you've exhausted all avenues.

Good luck

be aware that a g day is 36 hours and a o day is 34 hours. Makes a difference when two are together. ie. 60 hours rest or 58 hours rest. as a consecutive o, or g day is 24 hours.

Guys, thanks heaps! Much appreciated...

Yeah, you can't swap for that if you'll only get 34 hours off instead of 36, but they can roster you for it! I have , a few times, called CC and asked to change an O to a G, as long as that G comes from my roster, later in the month. No problems so far.
