Because of weekend unstacking there are a lot of pilots finishing and starting their blocks on and after weekends. So none of the pilots in my bucket were available to be called. Since the staffing isn’t staggered.

I understand the contract and its glaring deficiencies extremely well because I live it. Day after day. As I’ve already said it is a system of have and have nots. It’s comical you guys try and write this off as I don’t understand the contract. It’s not a matter of understanding the contract it’s being able to wrap your head around the fact that this reserve system is entirely awful.
reserve sucks. Reserve has always sucked. Reserve will always suck. Treat every day of availability as though you’re going to fly, and you will leave less room for disappointment.

& remember, the reward for a good job is minimal punishment.
