Days off are awarded based upon seniority within your patrol group, so don't expect to get too many Fridays or Saturdays off your first few years. Split days off will only be an issue if you ask for them, or your Post-Academy training makes it necessary. You are probably right. CHU allows PAs to bid for shifts every six months, with seniority being given the greatest weight. That said, you will be assigned to the shift of your choice if you have been passed over on the two prior rotations. After getting your six months in the sun, you will be back to swings or mids.
