There is no pay cut here, you applied to an airline where the monthly pay was 75 hours a month. That's it. You work more you get paid more.
I'm not sure how you're doing math but $800 for the "average captain" is like 10 hours. So pick up one critical STL turn and call it a day. And if $800 breaks your budget, your doing it wrong in the first place.
This guy... assuming we all live pay check to pay check and that's why we miss the money... obvious under achiever. I'm losing probably 800/mo in 401k contributions alone from averaging 108-120 credit hrs per mo to just getting 75hr guarantee. You obviously have no money management skills beyond just paying the bills. Some of us are trying to invest and save for down the road and the current situation is crap at zw. Not to mention that for the only guarantee we get 4 and 5 am start times, 12 hr days and 11hr overnights.... that enjoyable.
