If you are holding a line as a new-hire, after only three months in LAX, that means reserve is going somewhat senior. Guys would rather do reserve than hold a libe or open-flying line. That tells you that the lines stink enough for guys to deliberately choose reserve instead. When the lines stink, the open flying lines stink worse. So, probably a lots of all-nighters, low-time trips, and sits.
There's a reason LAX is the junior base, the red-headed b@stard stepchild. There is no life south of Seattle.

We get it, you hate Alaska Airlines. Enough already.

Or maybe the people who live here know that 80% of the pilots who staff LAX commute meaning that the majority of pilots on RSV who commute would much rather fly than rot in a crashpad which allows the pilots who live in LA to more than likely sit at home and not work while on RSV.

Possible but not the underlying reason.
Are you Or have ever been LAX-based? If so, when and how long?.
Again, theres a reason LAX is junior. I doubt things have changed since I voluntarily left Alaska for greener (red, white, and blue) pastures.
Hate is such a strong word.
Again, wash that PayDay candy bar down with another big swig of KoolAid. But, before you do, make sure you're wearing your rose-colored glasses. While you're at it, give yourself a 35% pay cut. Then, make yourself a furlough notice and arrange to have it delivered on Christmas Eve.
Lastly, when you have some time, Google Stockholm Syndrome.

You're gone. Seems like you think you made the right choice, good for you. Can you please let this thread be about new-hires, not your aged opinions?

His opinions still ring markedly true true today. Our management is garbage and care zero about you, the same as they always have. Its nice that you all are excited about the new job, congratulations and welcome..but expect to endure years of lying, deceit, and anger watching one of these cowards smile and lie to your face while the other kneels behind you stealing your wallet

The reasons LAX is junior:
1. Cost of living in CA.
2. Lines poorly constructed, usually with a turn at the end of a 4 day trip.
3. Lots of commuters at ALL the LAX based airlines making going home a nightmare.

Positivity?
OK, Here's a cute monkey video. Everybody likes monkeys. That's positive.

Moral of the story? Just know what you're getting into or you'd best like cucumbers; because, no grapes for you.
