If QOL is what your after as a new-hire commuter, the ONLY thing that matters is how quickly you can get off RSV and start to have some control over your life. And to do that here at B6 you bid the 190 JFK.
Ya the 190 flight deck sucks compared to the Bus and it's basically regional flying, but you know what sucks more: Having to spend 10-15 nights a month sitting in a sh!thole crash pad in Queens waiting to get called to do red-eye round trips to the Caribbean because you liked the flight deck better on the Bus over the 190. Easily going to spend 8-12 months more on Rsv if you bid the Bus.
Really! Yes, first airline job. I just thought that if I'm at the training facility where the sims are, it would be no big deal to just check it out real quick between sim periods. I guess you are saying that is not possible. Copy.
And as as retiring military, I have the luxury of moving anywhere I want paid by the government. My ideal gig is sitting reserve at home and getting paid. I plan to commute from current location for about 6 months and decide if B6 is going to be my long term plan. If so, I will be moving into domicile. So, considering that as my situation, would bidding Bus still be that bad?
