I mean they're not going to do it often because they're paying a captain to an FO job.
They may not have done it often so far but when we start to run short on FO's due to not being able to fill classes, the company WILL use you for the full 20 hours they're allowed every month. I don't know about you but I like being home with my family every once in a while and with this provision, you'll be gone a LOT more. It's just another kick in the nuts to reserves, some of us who have already been getting kicked for several years now.
