I second this - all of our pay targets should be based on reserve guarantee (70 hours/month or higher if negotiated in the next contract). At least 20% of the company is stuck with reserve. While I fully support pilots being able to pick up extra time (WS/GS) I don't feel anyone should have to do just to make a decent living.
