Okay. Started today and it was awesome. Breakdown as follows:
16 76/75 ATL Domestic
10 76ER JFK
5 73NG NYC.
Those are the no kidding numbers. By the way There are now 7001 pilots at work for Delta with only 200 on furlough!

I imagine short call reserve would suck, but how about regular reserve? Isn't domestic a 12 hour show to the gate and international is 24 hours. I live 3.5 hours away from JFK (traffic permitting), so I would hope a 12 or 24 hour response wouldn't be so bad...or at least I hope. Heck, I'm just hoping to get hired!

They went junior on the AE, FWIW.

Reserve in ATL is a piece of cake... I've sat 2 months on the ATL767 as bottom guy. I credited 110ish hours in July and it's going to be in the upper 80's this month. As a DTW commuter, I've only had to get one hotel. That was because of an early sign-in a couple weeks ago.
One hotel in two months as plug on reserve, not a single short call, and I've known about all my trips greater than 20 hours in advance... I call that not too bad.

If you live in the NYC area, great. You just got a job being paid to sit at home waiting to go fly. If you don't live in NYC, you just got a job sitting in a crappy crash pad up to 16 days a month.
There is a reason none of the pilots who are already here want to be on reserve on the ER in NYC.
Having said that, I started out on the panel of the 727. I'd have given anything to fly the ER as a new hire.
