I didn't know that my pay was going to be cut $14,000 a year by a bankruptcy judge.

I didn't know that I would be a reserve FO going into my 7th year.

I didn't know that Delta was going to move most of our operation to JFK.

I must have not been paying attention during the interview.

When I came to Comair in 2003...
There was only one hub - CVG.
There was only one pilot domicile - CVG.
There was only one headquarters - CVG.
So I moved to CVG.

Now Delta wants me in JFnK but they cut our pass priority and flights. I will not devote $400 of my $2800 monthly salary to setting up a second residence in New York City.

Please tell me where my "bad decision making" came into play here?
Then quit. It's that simple.

Despite all of these things happening to you, doesn't give you the right to show up fatigued because you didn't want to have a crashpad or have a place in base.

I'm just saying ... haha
