Full disclosure on SkyWest QOL on reserve. SkyWest have a combination of long call/2-hour call out, rolled into 1. If you are on 2-hour call out, you might get notified the day before to report immediately after a rest period. That means you might be on a 2-hour call out, starting at noon. Crew tracking emails you at 3 pm the day before your reserve assigment and assigns you to a flight departing the next morning at 5 am. This makes commuting on reserve impossible the morning of your first reserve day. Mesa (and most other regionals) don’t have this type of reserve.

Since you are wanting to minimize reserve, it shouldn't impact you.
