Correct me if I'm wrong but if you live in base and don't care about immediate money or have another source of income, this would be a pretty sweet deal?
Someone in South Florida sitting long call reserve sounds like a dream job, for some.

He's laughing because LCR is practically non-existent lately. And when it DOES become available under the CBA (by the end of the year), it will likely go senior.
But as to your post above, yes, pulling RSV while on your boat in S. Florida could indeed be seen as a dream come true to many. Not everyone is chasing the almighty dollar, and the ones we happen to be pulling down are pretty damn good overall.

No, it wasn't actually the union, it was a resigning union rep. He also did not use the word "combined" in relation to the numbers fired; that came later in the email when discussing pilot group size. "Combined" was just used here on APC by one of our more negative posters (though I can see where it might be interpreted that way). JB attrition in the past year is somewhere around 95 pilots, and I doubt all that the majority of those were fired.
JetBlue fires more pilots than those airlines COMBINED, not percentage-wise but actual total numbers of pilots fired.
As I recall, the other airlines were in single digit numbers of pilots fired each. I'm not sure why you're defending JB when you obviously don't know what you're talking about.
