From his initial question, he certainly has not been here long. But yes, reserve royally sucks the big one. Contract time...
Been with the company long enough to have played the reserve game & had good success with it. Understand commuting to reserve sucks, but thought maybe long haul reserve didn't have the same short call mayhem going on that happens in the narrow body fleets. From what little useful information I've gotten by posting my question, it appears the company is at least being consistent across all airframes.
Still baffled that so many people chose to read ignorance into my initial question, but I've been on this board long enough to have seen the condescension of some posters. To all of you, have some candy.
