June hire here... Completed IOE about a month ago, not quite. Reserve at SEA this month, and as others have stated, little sitting. I’ve gone one reserve day without flying. It’s been busy. Crews are great! Switching bases in November. At the moment it seems that SEA is short on FO’s.

If there is an opening and your seniority will hold it, not a problem. If there is an opening and someone senior to you wants it, problem. If there is no opening, problem. That being said, most people are getting what they want right out of training.

Still waiting for the first screening call, so this is a bit premature but...
Commuting from SMF I think I’d go for the base that has the best promise of minimal reserve time. I hope to avoid the crash pad phenomenon if possible.

That would be LA. You will probably need a crash pad for the first couple of months initially but it shouldn't be too long before you have a line but YMMV. Good luck to you.
