Lower income for more days on the road with little rules (if you don't get it, as it stands our rules allow the company to set as an efficient schedule as they'd like), no retirement.
FunBux™ don't pay the mortgage or even put gas in your beat up old car.
Jerry, as a new guy, I was strictly speaking about the time spent away from home. That's all. The actual flying schedule.
I don't know enough (surely, don't know half as much as you guys do) about this business yet. So I don't want to act like I do. I'm really desiring to learn, and to see what this business is all about. I wouldn't dare debate on the issues you brought up. I actually don't disagree with what you said. However, I didn't mean anything deeper than what I said about scheduling.
As far as my time spent away from my family, I still stand by what I said is best for me and my family . . . . . . so far.
