What is your goal? Are you trying to accumulate flight time for some reason specifically? Are you trying to improve qol? Make money?
Just trying to understand why your are opposed to it.
Fwiw.... The year I flew 600 hours, I think I credited almost 1100 hours. The next year I flew 375 hours, credited 1100 hours with an average of 18.25 days off per month.
There are a lot of ways to skin a cat here

coming to endeavor will improve my QOL regardless believe me. But I also want to fly and get hours as soon as possible. Obviously I’ll be at the bottom and crap rolls down hill and I have to do my time on reserve, but I’m just concerned about being on reserve for 5-6 months and 30-40 hour block lines once I do have a line.

ok that’s not bad. I’ve just seen multiple people throw numbers like 30 and 40 and it kinda worried me.

wow that’s crazy, I thought it was bad here as far as attrition. Well I’ll be there soon so hopefully I won’t be living that reserve life too long. Thanks for all the info fellas.

If you think 3 1/2 years is a long time to upgrade, remember, not so long ago it was close to 8 years, and F/O pay was a lot lower then...
