You mean you don’t like an uncommutable show on day one with five legs, two legs at min day on days two and three and then an uncommutable five leg day four? /s
The trips have gotten better but I still can’t quite figure out why we’re basically idle on days two and three.
I’m glad we have the rigs but honestly I don’t think they come into play as much as we’d like and I don’t think they’re a good reason we aren’t getting raises. There’s an argument to be made for our insurance being worth a high hourly amount but I don’t buy the rigs being that valuable. I’d be way ahead this year if we had Skywest’s 4:12 min day instead of the rigs.
