Boy you sound just lucky
... But you're still on reserve which means subject to Ready reserve, CMF/CML, deadheads, test flights, no schedule just days off, repositioning/ferry flights, crew trac, 7 hotels when could've bought 0, flying with the guys no one else will fly with, subject to UAX,USX, and even GO! Being based somewhere means nothing to crew sched When ur on reserve. Oh...and unless those are golden days you could easily end up flying.
Having 602-xxx-xxxx NOT show up on my phone is blessing enough to not being on reserve.
At least life is good for you right now ....but please please please never try to paint Mesa RSV as a good thing.
