I am amazed at the trolling people do on this site and it tells me you really aren't that happy sitting in your crash pad on reserve jumping out of your skin every time the phone rings then getting ****ed off when you actually have to go fly, been there done it, reserve sucks, 2-4 days off sucks, enjoy and best of luck, I'll take my 7 months off a year and a schedule I know for at least the next year every October and enjoy my $100K, golf game has never been better! And I admit I have not been at an airline in 18 years, I am guessing I am a bit older than you!
