Here’s where your answer lies if you haven’t figured it out. My guess your a 10+ year Capt as I remain FO, your thoughts now? It’s not great seniority vs other carriers, but I have been #1-#3 at various bases. Makes sense, or not? I would be bottom rung at some bases or not able to be Capt at one and you can guess that one. Could do a ton of OT, but home is nice… for me…
