I absolutely did not expect 14-16 days off or really any kind of QOL at all. My point was we were told we'd fly almost exclusively as captains, and thus make good money and gain valuable hours making the sacrifice in QOL worthwhile. Between flying almost exclusively from the right seat and payroll not honoring the pay structure we had been informed of we are not too happy.
My expectations of life as a CQFO at TSA were low to begin with, but it's been worse than I thought. They seem to live up to their crappiest reputations. As a veteran of RAH I thought I knew what a crappy regional was, but I have been proven wrong.
I hope this clears up any judgements that I'm a dingus with overwhelming unrealistic expectations.
