The other is that I don't think the dropping everything and listing premium gravy train will last forever, a JCBA might kill our scheduling rules and this might be the only chance I'll ever have to jump with no 121 PIC.
In response to the other guys, I'm ORD FO. No idea how I'm getting so successful on the drops. I bid weekends off so I'm not trying to drop over a weekend and that's it.
Do the interviews, get the CJOs and then weigh out which works best for you where you want to live. And yes you’re right, no telling how long your particular gravy train and flexibility will last, and of course it all disappears the second you upgrade too.
