Bottom line.................
The old system is not the answer. Maybe a rotating reserve is not the answer. Certainly, this current system may not be the answer.
But think about this........
If you were only on reserve for a year or two tops, the old system would be doable.

Aside from getting off of reserve in that time frame, rotating might be the only answer.
Everyone keeps preaching that we are stagnant, there is no growth, and the industry has changed forever. Well sh!t, you are correct. The union OWES it's membership the ability to work and survive in this job. They are not doing it. We are stagnant, but the UNION must adapt to it. Not give the BS that useless MF gives and say "there is nothing we can do about that.". Yes, you can Mike. You need to change the system or get more senior people OUT!!!!
THE FOCUS NEEDS TO SHIFT TO HOW TO GET PEOPLE OFF OF RESERVE RATHER THAN THE SYSTEM ITSELF!!!!
