Now Envoy has this “High Value Aviator” program and are offering $45k. For what?! So I can waste my life commuting to reserve and airport standby? F That! If we are such High Value aviators then you would think they would want us to fly.

If the wholly owners need captains, the need to revise their reserve rules and then maybe they wouldn’t have to cram upgrades down people’s throats. If they want me then I’m gonna need that $45k and a line at least 10 months out of the year.
I’m curious... You knew the contract and reserve rules before applying at PSA (I would hope). So why were you surprised when you got the job you applied for? And then to GoJet? Gotta say, odd decisions.
