The other thing to consider is PDX is by far the best base to sit reserve in as an FO if you like getting paid not to fly. I could probably hold a garbage line but I've been bidding reserve for months and averaging 2 days of work/month. Pick up 2 or 3 days work on your days off and you're now sitting at 95-100 hours of credit for minimal work. This situation could obviously change at any moment, but I'm enjoying it while it lasts.
