Huge issue is global reserve. When you bid and are awarded weekends off (or any other day for that matter), then they don’t use you all week but roll you into a trip over said weekend off just because “global reserve”, that is a problem. Why do you even bid? They cannot do this with regular reserve (except for FDOs) so why is it a thing with global?

Another point is them converting everyone to short call just because they can. I have a buddy that got converted to SC tomorrow and he quite literally is not even legal for most anything but they did it because…they can. Another friend of mine went 2.5 months without flying but was converted to short call most weeks with zero opentime. He was ok with it because he lived in base so whatever but me, as a commuter, that is a ton of money spent on either crashpads or hotels for absolutely no reason other than “they can”.
