They will make it thru the year.

Yup. Another summer full of *****s.

"If you are a B737 or B756 Captain or First Officer in IAH, EWR, CLE, or LAX who does a straight pickup after the issuance of this bulletin of a full trip pairing from open time that originates on August 14, 2012 through August 20, 2012, that pickup will be treated as a “Voluntary Junior Manning” (VJM)."

And as the line holders "score" premium pay, the reserves continue to have their days rolled and be abused with NO end in sight. Within minutes of this announcement, several trips magically disappeared. Thank you company saviours.........
