You just have to look on the positive side!
-You'll become familiar with the jumpseat procedures for almost every single US airline.
-You'll have plenty of opportunity to network with other pilots while sitting in said jump seat.
-You'll become and expert at replacing luggage works wheels as they rust out due to dragging your suitcase to/from your crash pad all the time.
-Speaking of crashpads, and networking, there's nothing like living in the same 2 bedroom apartment as 16 other pilots for making connections!
-The Blue line stops usually only smell like urine during the summer. During the winter it freezes and doesn't smell nearly as bad.
