Flyingnm1, ^^^^^^^this is not cool. The crew desk and the company has the responsibility to provide you with enough flying to consolidate.

No choice...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but probation gets extended if you're not "active"... So if I'm out for four months on military leave, probation gets extended by four months.

Yup.

FWIW, here's the pertinent section of the contract:

6-C Period of Probation

A Pilot shall be on probation for twelve (12) Bid Periods of service as a Pilot for the Company and having performed 165 days of work for the Company. For purposes of this Section 6-C, "Work" shall include Pilot duty, reserve availability, training, instruction, special assignment and all other flight duties for which compensation is paid. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent the Company from ending a Pilot’s employment during his period of probation regardless of his position on the Seniority List.
