Don't know about that.
1. At least a $125,000.00/yer pay CUT initially
2. New born at home (read- diapers, babysitter while wife and I are at work...)
3. Can't sell the house for what it's worth. Buy out, or keep making the payments? (it comes out even in a year)
4. PAY for the hotel room/car while in training
5. Possible recession on way
6. Possible merger on way
7. Long upgrade, and if the rates stay at/near where they are now, I can make more at Spirit per year on the same A/C, and a better QOL
However.
1.It IS United
2.United will PROBABLY be around longer than Spirit
3.Chance at bigger aircraft, variety of flying (spelling?)
4.Chance of payrates going up a pretty good percentage (?)
If I didn't have a wife, kid, house, Harley... I would jump on it. No "responsibilities".
But, do I stay and pray that Spirit will be around (one way or another) until I retire, or medical out?
Or take the hits now for a POSSIBLE better future?
No brainer ha?
