He probably only makes half of what you make or maybe 75%. I don't know if you still can do it, but you use to be able to access the pay rates for a number of employees through the company policy manual. A large number of HDQ employees get paid less than a 2-3 year FO.

If he was a manager he wouldn't be *****ing about our bonus program. They have a better one.

That said if you want to make the big bucks NVUS go drop $80K on all of the flight training, spend years getting the experience to come to work here, and you to can get the additional $500-700 bonus as highly paid SkyWest pilot.
