Using the free internet on their company device… thousands of miles away.
Logging into the pilot scheduling computer, with an IP address from… thousands of miles away.
Posting on social media about sitting short call reserve, on the beach, with family on an island… thousands of miles away.
And then we can get to the metadata. That’s a treasure trove!

When you show up in front of the big brown desk for the carpet dance, any question they ask you, they already know the answer to.
You’re rarely going to be asked a question that they don’t already have the answer to.
Each question, a test to see how much you really want to slice your own throat
The sad part, idiot pilots who don’t see the problem with this kind of behavior you describe.

Rumot here is a guy got canned for doing that when the flight canceled.

I can’t believe I’ve heard more than one version of this happening at multiple airlines. I get reserve kinda sucks, but I’m amazed that “your job is to show up within a given radius of this location and exist” is apparently difficult.

I always feel like I live in a different world when people are complaining about not flying on reserve.
I'm on day 5 of my reserve block. Day one was a 3am call, 5am show for a two day, back home at 7pm. Day three was a 3am call, 5am show for a 3-day.
That's my normal reserve block. I get two days off and then I'm back to another 5-day block, where I'm expecting another 3am call... you get the idea.

Even fractional flying is better than what she’s describing, too.

I personally know someone who was at then Eagle (now Envoy) based in NYC... He would regularly sit SC down in SJU! I thought he was nuts.
Did all his proverbial dice rolls come out good? Or did he eventually hit snake eyes?

Eaglevoy could burn through 60 reserves in a category on a clear day simply due to its own incompetence. It wouldn't take long to get burned.

He was lucky. He flowed to AA.

Statistically speaking, non-whites are still a small minority. And why would I want someone who looks like me to screw up? That’s just going to reinforce the stereotype.

Pilots are the dumbest smart people.

So airline pilots don’t want cameras in the cockpit but they’ll let the company track them that much when off duty? Besides shooting his own foot of course.Because:
