Give me the cushyyyy life of a 5% seniority NB FO in my golden years where I can cherry pick pretty much everything on my schedule!
WB anything is pretty good QOL, unless you commute to reserve. Even then I know guys who simply own a nice condo in a nice location in base, so it's more like having two residences (you can afford that...).
Pay is so much more on WB, about the only good reason to stay NB FO would be if you have kids at home and need weekends/holidays off. Or if you just hate time zones.
