In that case, I would wear regular clothes. It's not like you are going to get off the plane and go right to work.

When I go to training, even though it's a DH, I don't wear my uniform. A little different than your situation, but similar.

I know a couple of guys that dh incognito a lot. They say no one really cares as long as they don't do dumb stuff like drink.

Is flying on reserve really that scarce? I'll be sitting reserve for the first time in October (at JFK though) and was hoping to fly often.

When you're the last guy, and there are 6 to 9 in front of you, and half of them bid 'first'.....yeah, I guess so.

For CR9 LGA, Mock has 49 Reserve lines and 111 Hard lines for 44% coverage. Guess there will be a lot of crash pad couch time!

You only lose pay if you were over 75 credit for the month. Work 1 hour or 75, and you get paid for 75, amirite?

Wrong if you drop below 75, you lose that credit. If your line is 75, but drop 10 hrs, you get paid 65. What you are referring to is if your line was less that 75, then yes you still get paid 75.
