The guy that gets to fly 9 days a month for $300,000 a year is the exception, not the rule.
I have never done a JM that I didn't "want" to do. Either grow a pair or grow up and accept the lifestyle of the profession you chose or take control of your life and find a new line of work. Because all I am hearing is a bunch of millennial cry babies whining that they can't have their cake cake and eat it too.
Oh no sir. You got that one wrong. I am growing a pair because I'm flying the wonderful schedules that our superb managers are providing me. Yeah, I might as well say that I'm based in MIA with how many times I've been sent out here to work another airlines flying. I don't mind the extra flying, when it makes sense. But all our QOL problems come from one and only one source and that is AAG. They have chosen to make our schedules and lives as broken as they are. You didn't make that choice, I didn't, neither did Pedro. Nice try turning into this as a "cry baby" moment, because it doesn't change the fact that our upper managers and executives are making this they way it is. You don't like us telling the truth? Then tell our leaders to start leading and making a difference? To actually improve our work rules and schedules. Where we don't have to waste 30hrs away from families just to fly one flight of 2hrs? Inefficiency is the problem and these executives excel at it.
Addition: the flow and JM have nothing to do with one or the other. Very weak, man.
JM happen because of the inefficiency of their staffing not because of flow. If it was the flow, that would've been stopped a year ago.
