I'm a former best, of the best, of the best, sir! I was practically laughed at and mocked by my peers when I told them I was leaving NJA for Spirit. And it was a gamble at the time but anyone could see the stagnation cesspol that NJA had become. I'm at three years on property, in the left seat, and if I don't work a single hour above guarantee this year I'll gross $196,000 and I'm at near the bottom in Airbus compensation. Had I stayed at NJA I'd be a 10 year FO making $92,400 for a close to equivalent number of days/month. Why anyone without a felony conviction is working at NJA/Flex is beyond my comprehension.
