It wasnt long ago that the bottom 12 FOs on the 777 in DC were monthly forced into being lineholders. I couldnt hold a reserve line to save my life. So I got to know Guam pretty well.
Reserve sucks.
Reserve sucks even more if you commute.
I hope we see reserve improvements in he next contract.
The SRL gave some people the option to not be on reserve. Thats all I was trying to say. I wasnt senior enough to get a SRL in my BES so it was a moot point.
