Before you start to complain about the "hourly" wage, which I agree is horrible, think about the flight attendants on your airplanes who are never moving to mainline and will work for their 13-15K a year for their entire career. SOOOO.....how many days off should you have and please justify it.
You work for Connie. How do you feel is you get back to back work periods where you are gone for over a month at a time? I know, it's a 747, so it's worth it.......
