So, if I fly a 13 day trip that is a spill over trip and block in on the the first day of the new bid month with 35 hours of credit for the 1 day in the month....and I have 2 weeks vacation worth 49 hours starting on the 18th...my total pay time is 84 hours. Just how many days off do I need in that month...i have 29 days off...worked 1 day, and somehow that offends your sensibilities that I fly back that vacation time in the next 17 days. If that is working too hard, then stay home. Just don't try to insinuate that I am depriving other's of faster advancement because I am the one who is greedy.

I bid a base/equipment/position based on a lot of factors. When you want to change the game...fine. As I said before, just allow a couple of years for pilots to account for the paradigm shift and get positioned into their new utopia
