Essentially as a commuter, having every day be SC or an assignment. From what I hear from UA, if you commute your strategy is to avoid reserve at all costs. Thats why CA went so Jr, and thats why WB FO did as well (reserve for years).
If you commute but can do Long Call from home, life is pretty nice here. Could it be better? Of course. But I bid reserve by choice most months with my commute. My category/seat last month had everyone 70% or greater holding lines, involuntarily. Most months don't look like that, but just shows reserve doesn't have to be this avoid at all costs thing. Lots of people prefer it.
