Putting in 10 years at a POS regional isn't enough time to get a single weekend day off and only get 6-7 days off a month with the pre assigned 0400 trash every week?

The difference with places like PSA and Compass is you are "junior" for 3-6 weeks for an FO and 9-14 months for a CA there. Then you aren't junior anymore. At Envoy, 10 years later and you are still VERY junior and on the absolute worst schedules we have with 7 days off a month and 0400 starts every week, you just assume not even bid because you get your last choice anyway. People say live in base. Well, after closing 5 MAJOR domiciles.. good luck with that. I have lived in 3 of them then kicked out every time and currently in the process of getting kicked out of another one. Not doing it again.
