Never feel bad about not flying on reserve. They ain't paying me to fly. They are paying me to answer the phone and come to work if they need me. They never felt bad about calling me at midnight with a noon report the next day after I drove 5.5 hours home. Nor did they feel bad about me sitting in Buffalo hotel on Thanksgiving eating BLT for lunch at cafe. Feel good about being home and irritating your teenage daughter.

And for God's sake, call in sick if you are sick even if your team is in the Super Bowl.
