Hi, 49 year old corporate guy here with kids in middle school. Leaving corporate because the last minute pop up trips have become unbearable.

I just got an invite for.the Hogan. My app was in for 2 years. Can you guys shed some light on life as a commuter at United? I live near Dayton/Cincinnati and have a class date with a local 767 cargo operator. I can drive to work. 13/14 days off a month. Pay stinks first year but is about 85k starting year 2 and just goes up from there. That's enough for my family. Qol reins at that point.
I know the pay/benefits at United are top notch but I just need some insight into commuting to work and how often I will be home. I can't move from Dayton. I see the minimum days off are 12. The pessimist in me says I will lose 4 of those days commuting to Kord/kiad/kewr.

I only worked at a regional for 18 months and that was 16 years ago so please forgive my ignorance.

Thank you
