I read the forum and never post anything, but I have to say that the struggle here is real. I have been a captain for several years and I fall into the group that thinks of leaving but most likely will not, for the sake of security for my family. That said, my wife and I have been going over the options a lot lately. Especially as we have begun a family, it is painful to constantly be away from them. Painful to fly so many trips on the backside of the clock, or deadhead everywhere imaginable to start and end trips. At times, it’s been hard to keep my head straight with these schedules. It makes my old regional schedule look nice! I realize what we had at VX will never return, but the complete 180 in what we had in treatment is very tough to grasp. This place will go out of its way to make things more difficult for its pilots, even if it’s a strain on the operation. The thought of leaving this place doesn’t cease.
