Too soon?
Already responded before seeing this comment. I was a 747 guy, but I’m uncertain how that could be relevant to the OP’s question. I’m guessing this is a “dig” at the great Short Call fiasco that brought unwanted scrutiny and changes to pretty much all categories? If this comment had practical intent, I’ll just say that commuting to WB reserve can be easy. Depending on commute city pair, there may be no “impossible” callouts, and you generally get back early enough to make it home. Plus starting and ending with a DH is common. And the worst trip you get assigned to is better than most NB trips. I assume the OP might have stated if he envisioned sitting reserve in a WB. It’s a fine gig if you find yourself in that position.
