There will be FOs that had bypassed that regret bypassing because they are stuck as FOs and can't hold upgrade and they will complain. With improved reserve rules, reserve life of a captain will be pretty good.

This happened here not long ago and is being set up to happen again.

Like my grandma always said... "You can't steal in slow motion". Getting a 3 month upgrade is stealing (in a good way). Grab it and get the PIC time.
I agree with this.
