I have flown with several reserve FO's in the past few weeks, they have all made the comment they are flying 70+ hours a month. Most of them HAVE been extended into days off. A few were even JA'd upon checking out from an assignment.

As far as using the displacement to get the ca's = fo's, that is complete crap. You will always need more Ca's than FO's if only to cover the fact that Ca's typically get more vacation time. This displacement was strictly driven by the almighty dollar. Some idiot, d-bag beancounter thought they could save money. They are going to trip over a $10 bill to save a nickel. Just watch our block hours increase in the next few months and the company start paying fines again because we are short crews.

D W needs to go...

Then life might improve

This is a time where I wish I was anonymous.... O the things I wanna type!

Yeah, that and a shiny new contract.

And I want a pony!

Hig forward what you want to say about Barney to me and I'll put it up here :D

And I'll keep him away from your pony!

2nd weekend in March I'm getting you your pony. I'll drive ya to the corner of Winchester and Getwell. THE pony :D. Don't tell the mrs.

I'm off= I'm in! Although I may show up in a michelin man suit in hopes to avoid catching the hiv.....

Won't help..... I got the clap just by driving by with my windows down. hahaha

Jeez!!! I thought things at 9L were bad, lol. I'm sorry guys, sounds like you're getting a F-P-M-I-T-A (federal pound me in the a$$) from mngmt. I was hoping that once 9L made the move to MEM completely that things might actually start to improve once we get a contract and stuff. Maybe I was wrong. Sounds like things are just as bad over there.

My sympathies!
