sucks for commuters, though, which a large portion of the pilots are.

I don’t think the older bubbas are gonna bite off on that! I do think their needs to be some QoL improvements (SC/FSB, first day report, rolling days off, etc) for RSV… just don’t want a lot of bargaining capital making reserve so awesome that it’s a better gig than being a solid lineholder!
You don’t want to make RSV better than being a line holder. Why not? RSV will go senior and why is that a bad thing? Something has to be senior, why are you gonna draw a line in the sand and worship the line |

Something has to be senior, why are you gonna draw a line in the sand and worship the line I would describe it as closing the gap between #1 and the last guy in a BES. The difference in terms of $ and QoL is huge. It should be more balanced. once some senior folks opt for reserve vs. junior folks being forced into it we will have reached some state of balance. |

Not saying junior should have a bad quality of life. But absolutely senior should have a better QOL than junior. Otherwise what is the point of seniority? Yes you should be rewarded for more service and contributions to the company than the guy that got hired yesterday. But I guess the current generation getting hired has boxes of childhood participation trophies from in their closet.

Can you drink a beer while playing that golf game? No? Then you're working.
