Oh, you're right...you're just trading in personal information.
Thanks for stating that you're not supposed to be impartial. A couple of years back when I identified some folks via their writing style my posts were immediately pulled. You did it less than 2 weeks ago and your post stood.

That said, as a reserve you do not have the ability to pick up time off the swap board. You are limited to the various "slips."

The glitch has been fixed on ATL MD88 reserve. No longer does a 0 rasa ore last you to mid month. The days of 4 days used is now 4 reserve days not used.
Rasa ore = raw score on iPhone auto erect.
Autocorrect = auto erect on iPhone autocorrect too.

"Terry Erskine, a consultant and retired labor negotiator for Delta Air Lines Inc., acknowledges that pilots are frustrated. But he thinks they haven't tempered their expectations sufficiently. "It hasn't sunk in yet that it's a forever-changed industry," he says."
I guess Southwest hasn't gotten the message yet! Thanks Terry for the wake up call! I'll just tell my family to "temper their expectations sufficiently". I wonder how he's enjoying all the cash he bailed with from
Delta? Hey Terry.... F#%! YOU!!!
Perhaps the company should think about tempering their expectations from the pilot group... No buck.... No Buck Rogers.

Back on APC for a short stint, didn't take long for everyone to get as excited about reserve as I've been. Welcome to "Club Leash.". Anyone else counting their long calls from home on three or less fingers?

So, I haven't gotten around to reading that 1100 pg PDF FTB recommended on DALPA site, but why is it that RES pilots can not pick up any time on days off to help out other brothers/sister's in a time of need? I know I'm new and a little naive (not in judgement).
