Political rant: distributing reserve flying equally between junior and senior seems to run contrary to our entirely seniority-based world. What is next to be changed?
Sorry, but the highlighted sentence really grinds my gears. This is a job. If you want to get paid then you're going to have to WORK. This isn't a charity. It's a business. It's also our unions duty to represent and work to improve the QOL of ALL of it's pilots. So it's not ok for someone to expect the bottom of the category to do all the work while he/she sits around all month doing nothing.
When people are in the same bucket, seniority is honored. The system absolutely honors seniority.
I'm sorry for jumping down your throat.
