Bidding those schedules is the only way to make close to what a pilot should be making in 2019 for flying a jet at a “top tier” career job, it’s still pretty far behind when you look at a 10 year snapshot but it’s even farther off on the less slave schedules. You can hold 7/7 fairly quickly after training which is nice. .
