Umm... unless they have changed this, there are no 7 short calls because they are ALWAYS on short call (promptly available) on their reserve days. Southwest is like this as well, a fact that the bemoaners of how miserable our reserve system is/will be conveniently omit when they point out that SWA reserves are "only" on call 15 days. I will gladly take the as low as 16 up to 18 days on call with only 6 or 7 short calls dependent on the ALV.

Also, would you rather have 85 hours pay at their ridiculous rates or 75.5 (average) at our rates? The grass is not always greener.
