Easier to be professional when we’re paid like professionals 
but instead we’re paid like tree trimmers and held to the standards of professionals

As a former CPZ pilot, I beg to differ. Sometimes the circumstances warrant SE taxi. It comes down to your level of professionalism. I used SE taxi procedures as a CA and FO. It's all about doing the best job that you can for your Company. When I was at CPZ, Delta had metrics for if we used SE taxi or not. Delta or American are buying your fuel and airplane. You should adhere to their fuel policies as much as practicable. You are correct that you do not get any reward for following their fuel policy. But that is where your professionalism comes into play. At the Majors, we're looking for professionals.

Everyone remeber the DPI thing? Senior Captains start receiving emails regarding to it. Anyone here can shed some light?

Me too, nothin, and I'm pretty sure whatever they had in mind for "qualified" is true of everyone who has the DPI next to their name. A lot of us have internals as well, so, who knows!? It's at least pretty clear by now if there was ever any doubt that its meaningless for an interview. But at least we've had good success getting interviews as a pilot group in general anyway.

How're the lines?
I'm considering Compass as a my first ever 121 gig, switching from the dark mysterious 135 world. Currently I live on Oahu and want to know if the schedules (once I have a line) and reserve lines are commutable or not. what is the call out time on long reserve? short call reserve? ready reserve?
I'd like to hear from any and all commuters, PM or response to this much appreciated.
I'm guesstimating 6 months before I hold a line, starting from DOH, is that a pretty safe bet? Mahalo!

Edit: everyone has their definition of senior, I missed the flow by years. There is hardly enough people mentioning still here who actually barely missed the flow. People who barely missed it were senior captains when I was brand new.
