His figures are definitely not average!
Yeah, no one at JB gets that. Here's a more realistic detail:
- Year 1 - $44k Gross (then subtract out all other insurance costs, commuting costs such as crashpads, etc.)
- Year 2 - $80k Gross
This is doing 72-78hrs/month.
Pay is definitely far below peers and heavily tilted towards people who live in NYC. They are really the only ones who can sit reserve at home, never fly, do RSA, VDA, day turns only, and whatever other scam they have.
