I dont think I have ever had a duty day longer than 11 hours, and the vast majority are less than 9.
I made more in my first year than my buddy did at AA.
Sometimes we have short overnights, most of the time they are plenty long.
Sometimes we stay in smallish towns with not great hotels, most of the hotels are plenty nice and some of them are really nice.
Sometimes we have lots of legs, Ive never had more than 4 in a day, and 90% of the time it is 3 or less.
Basically this place is a sounding board for the same 10 guys that have terrible attitudes and are always ****ed off and *****ing about how their life sucks.
I'm glad I came here and I enjoy it. But I choose to have a good attitude and not worry about much. That's the viewpoint you'll get from almost everyone on the line.
We need a new contract with super high pay rates and everything else that needs to be rewritten and added. I voted Yes on the SAV and have my strike bag tag for you haters.
What?! Do we fly for the same airline because what Hoover posted is certainly closer to the realities of life on the line at SWA than what you claim to be the case. Maybe you’re just flying those low block 19.5s and never getting abused by scheduling or the garbage operation that we run.
