Being based in LA, the transcons very rarely block above 530. Sometimes coming back west from jfk you get it. It’s just a long time in the cockpit and I’m not a quartermaster type that carries rations for 10 days. Do I really care? Nope.
My bigguns (al bundy) are training & vacation pay, don’t touch my profit sharing, and stop giving away sick rules.
Oh and the 6 day trips that do the double Atlantic crossings that completely destroy your sense of sleep cycle and make you incredibly unsafe by the last day. They should pay a premium for how wrecked you get at the end
