I didn’t work at all in January bidding reserve and made decent coin getting paid for all the unused SCs. If you’re senior enough you can bid a non-profile reserve line to avoid all the garbage trips.

A non-profile reserve line is, if you’re senior enough, you can bid days off regardless of the company profile. Example: company wants 1 reserve Dec 6th but 20 reserves Dec 25th, and all reserves available on the weekends. With a non-profile reserve line, you’ll get Dec 25th and weekends off if it’s legal contractually and FAR wise. Only available to something like the top 10% reserve bidders.

For all the posters about to pile on about sleep disruptions, how NB is better, I get it. Main takeaway is we have options at UAL which is amazing.

I know this is an interview thread, but here is more of a glimpse from the inside.
