I just can't afford to be bumped to FO when the others upgrade. I am older, was devastated during the great "recession" (21st century depression) have no debt, no car, no kids, eat meat but once a week, and I just can't make FO pay work for very long. The commute is doable, but can't move because of the house (where I want to live too). Very long on FO pay and the house goes - and I can't have that.

By the way, does Compass generally make commutable trips?
