They gave me a trip on reserve that started with a dead head from STL to IAH. I live in phx and had to fix the wife's car the two days before (she's in college and has our kids) so I asked scheduling if I can just pick it up in Houston and they said no. Well it's 700 to pay someone to fix it so I just went to Houston anyways. My fault but I felt it should've been approved.

How is requiring you to start your reserve trip in base BS? You're on reserve, ever been rescheduled? Happens alot on reserve, they could have had you operate a flight out of STL instead... Plans change.

Possible, but unlikely. Again not saying I'm right but for what they were paying me, they were just to inflexible. I'm not going to drop 700 just to go sit reserve for 2 hours for a maybe, and make nothing. That's just me, and that's y I don't work there be more. Besides, it's the pay that's b.s.
