Everyone has to do their time on reserve, especially here at Comair. I was on reserve 2 years exactly here and I did 6 RR's every single month.

During the furlough in '05, I was the most junior FO able to hold CVG. Everyone else was either shipped off to JFK or furloughed and I was on the bottom for a while. I got the A1 window constantly and either got the 12AM to 6AM RR (yes, we had those for a while) or the 3AM to 9AM RR. I agree they sucked, but hey, I did my time. Once I upgrade to Captain, whenever that may be, I fully expect to get the crap stuff (ie 3AM RR's) 6 times per month.

Once you get off reserve here, it is a totally different job and it's almost like you're working for a totally different company. Your day will come. Maybe not as soon as you'd like, but it will come.
