Us "off-the-street" captains were the red-headed step-children and were for the most part stuck on reserve for a very long time.
There is a place for the most junior people in there status. Its called RESERVE.
Therein lies the problems with Pinnacle's logic. Being junior does not necessarily mean you are to be punished with reserve. At many airlines, senior pilots take reserve, making it harder for some junior guys to get. It's not entirely meant as a way to prove who is stuck at the bottom and who isn't. Maybe some day you'll grasp that.
And yes, we were the step-children of the company - many of the "older" pilots looked at us like we hadn't paid our dues in this industry. Had the company not needed a bunch of experienced pilots, they wouldn't have hired us off-the-street into the left seat.
