Agreed.
As the saying goes, sometimes we are our own worst enemy.
Just don't understand the desire to force more people into working on the weekends.
If we can carry an overage of pilots and they are working during the week, that is a good thing.
Not to mention that an increase in staffing levels on the weekend means those currently forced into weekend reserve will be stuck there for even longer.
