I love this FO retention bonus. I was able to SAP to 65 hours for June with 17 days off. And, with the retention bonus, I will make the same as if I worked a full schedule.
This was probably not what the company expected that I would do, but I will enjoy my summer. I call it the "Summer of 65".
I will also be playing the #SummerOf65 drinking game. Every time I get a JRM call from crew scheduling, I will take a drink.
