It's all about how much of a personal life you'd like to have. Good luck with your choice.
That would be me!!!

So even if I stay on reserve for a while at least I get some sort of guaruntee. Like others have said, they need to be hiring street captains and the only way that happens is if no one on the seniority list meets the min's.
