This is why it was so nice volunteering for CDO's on your second to last day! Don't think they exist anymore...

Exactly. Which is why I laugh on the inside and get kind of steamed when captains are complaining about their pay, and sleeping in the crew room because they don't want to pay for a hotel.
I understand if you've got a family and a mortgage, etc.. but it's kind of inconsiderate complaining about it when your FO is making less than 1/3 what you do.

Most of my FO's have more discretionary income than I do. Everyones situation is unique, and it is just as annoying that people assume you can afford to spend just because you are a CA.

For comparison purposes, reserves at SkyWest get 13 days off a month. Just sayin'.

But that's about the only decent thing that can be said about SkyWest reserve
... Unless you live in base in a base that's somewhat decently staffed and then it's actually not that bad. Other than those few cases however, reserve sucks here too.
