Then you have the liars that can no way/no how make it to the airport by their claimed report time. They rely on the jet hopefully getting in late, or they call ahead to the other dude and make up a story about being stuck in unforseen traffic, etc. to cover themselves. They know there is zero accountability on report time from the crew desk once a trip is assigned.

Yes, I’m going to be torqued if I live 30 min from report (1:00 easily in the pickup criteria) and a senior guy who lives an honest 2:00 from report way up a winding mountain road (and that’s with zero traffic once on the interstate) says he can make it in an hour. It has happened.......
