LOL! The laughs keep rolling nonstop around here without fail!
Nah, don't blame it on reserve! Not it's fault this time! Poor old reserve always gets the blame whether it's at fault or not. I've always been this way! Nothing wrong with calling bullsh!t sometimes.
Some people have no respect for the cold hard. They down play the good sh!t and play up the bull sh!t!
You got one part right though: the "kids" here hear you and back you 100%. The adults? Not so much.

Don't study before starting the class, they will guide you. The training is 5 days of basic indoc, 8 days of systems, 3 days of GEN OPS and 10 sessions of simulator. You will have FTD sessions, a written test and oral/procedures exam. After all of that, finally, simulator. Don't think it will be fast because they give you some days off, go prepared to stay in training for 7 to 8 weeks. You will have opportunities to go home but I don't recommend, unless you have something urgent, because you will have low seniority and that can be a pain in the a@$% depending on what city you will commute from. If you need more info just PM me.
Limitations, immediate action items for emergencies and start faults should be committed to memory before you start training. Makes training a lot easier.

Not really worried about being on reserves. Everyone has to do it. Its better than working in some nuts and bolts factory. My buddy has been hold a line for the most part and has only been with the company for a about 3 months out of training. So should be interesting on what pans out for me.
Another question; I was talking with a past ExpressJet pilot, he said they are going to EFB. Surface 3's?? How soon is this going to be brought on line. I have an offer from a friend for a leather chart bag.. one that was purchased from the company. He said he paid 150 but will sell it for 75. Is it worth it? If they go EFB then i won't need it, how soon till they go electronic.
