We’ve go too many folks on here that whine about their commute, making ends meet, and being on reserve. All of which should be known before you sign on the line.

Honestly if it’s a dead end there take the check, the upgrade, and come on over. Especially if you can move to your base. The flow is real as long as the economy holds and AA is having training classes. The best part about it Is that you’re always making time toward your flow date. Lose your medical still marching toward it. Want to work in training, HQ, recruiting, or whatever after sitting reserve/flying the line for 2 years? You’re still closing I on that flow date. It’s the best insurance policy you can have while you try to get hired at a legacy, if that’s in fact the goal.
