They hate being told what they can and can't do.
If on reserve and you've got no chance of breaking guarantee you don't even have to file an FSAP since it'll make no difference in your pay.
BTW, It's a misuse of the FSAP system IMO. FSAP is meant to be for safety issues and they're using it to get us to grovel for pay. I wonder what the FAA rep on the FRC thinks of reviewing FSAPs for pay.
If you don't extend 30 minutes beyond what comes out on the printer, then you need to file a FSAP. That's my point, it's jacked up, but true. I see what you are saying about the company in regard to pay, but according to ALPA the 30 minute deal is actually FAA driven. And, in this regard the FSAP is safety related...but it also has pay implications. The FSAP was accepted in my case and no pay lost.
