The good news is, by the time we strike I will be on 4th year pay. And my budgeting is fine. But as a first year FO at Spirit, I am the lowest paid 121 pilot in the U.S. EVERY other 121 gig pays more first year. I could leave Spirit and go to Silver Wings or Great Lakes and make more than I do now.
