Definitely worked harder this year than years in the past although I have been "playing the game" since I was a senior F/O in BWI back in 2012. It's crazy but it is not about the money...its about the game....which I love. Ironically I'm sure I am not the highest paid at this airline. I know personally a lot of guys who are smarter and work harder than I do.
