None of us can be replaced in 2 hours. I dare say that an emergency room doctor could change jobs to be working in a different emergency room, and be subsequently involved at a professional level in much less time than an airline pilot changing airlines. While we are lanor, we also have a unique set of skills requiring specialized education and training. We are professionals.

Two hour reserve call out means that you can be replaced in two hours. That means blue collar to me.

But to replace a pilot in two hours, they have to actually have hired and trained him months or years previously and then payed him to sit reserve. So they didn't really replace, just re-assigned shift assignments.
