I see you are on the 756? Which base?
I bid reserve (although I can hold a line) for a bunch of reasons...
I have not been abused. They've called me here and there with illegal assignments (less than the contractual call out), I call them back, say it's not contractually legal, and I am not waiving it. No problems, they remove it.
I actually went "non qual" today because of landings...
Last trip was Sept. 4 as an extra IRO, and last landed August 12th....
