Now, really -- you want to tell me the union cares about reserves and/or will do ANYTHING different going forward?
No doubt you got screwed. Unfortunately the union pretty much only cares about what the senior line holders want. Also the BS about awarding 360 lines only to not award 30 for check airmen and have this much open time is absolutely ridiculous.
I would also suggest try calling, however a friend of mine got screwed with his bid, the pairings changed after he tagged some, and the union has yet to get back to him. Sorry about the reserve, it sucks royally.
