In addition, a NB FO would have to work 100+ credit hours a month to make equivalent of the WB FO... you would literally not be home. Bottom line, if you live in domicile, and want to make money and not work much, then a WB FO gig is a good deal/bet. I've worked 12 days so far since 1 Jan 17... and worked a total (including landings class and CQ event) of 75 days last year.
^^^^^^^^Yup! I commute and being a g-liner if I am on reserve or holding a line it's usually a wash on sparky. For me it still beats 90+ hr line on the guppy or 757. Min guarantee is enough for my lifestyle and allows my to dabble in other things...thinking of amateur surgery.
