You never stated that and sounded like a 9E guy, didnt mean to offend you in any way, if you did the SF34 type thing than you have my respect, just sick of SJS' jumping on here. Welcome aboard.

Are you kidding? Great, looks like another bid period with 20 plus reserve lines and max credit of 78 hours for a line. What happened to the 90-95 hour lines we were rockin. Im also not appreciating denied requests to pick up open time when pickings are slim so reserve guys can have them (cheaper for the company).

As frustrating as it is to be in my 6th week waiting for OE (with at least another month of waiting), I realize this situation is far preferable to getting OE'd and then sitting reserve without being called for days/weeks on end. Sit at home knowing the phone won't ring, or in a dingy crashpad hoping it will....hmmm...

TownPlace is very nice. The only thing irritating was the spotty shuttle service, particularly for getting back to the hotel after training. If you can bring a car, that would make the TownePlace experience perfect.
