Well I’ll have to check back in a few months anyway and see where things stand. Thank you all for your responses.
It sounds like reserve is going to suck more than anticipated and PSA has some of the longest reserve times. I’m guessing that is because the rest of the gig is pretty attractive and they are a good destination right now.

From talking to pilots at other regionals, reserve here is more unpleasant than anywhere else. However, I’ve also been told that it’s way less unpleasant if you line in base. I commutes to reserve before our “improved reserve rules” and while it sucked, I expected it to. The biggest downside for me was only getting the contractually allowed minimum days off every month and, at least for my term of it, not being able to move a single day. Ever.
