Quite a few hotels by the airport. Nothing dirty or dangerous, but lots of Holiday Inn Express and that kind of thing. You really have to plan food in advance if you want to eat healthy. Also a number of nice downtown layovers sprinkled in, but there seems to be no rhyme or reason for it. There is no downtown layover clause in our contract. It's something I really wish had gotten fixed in this latest TA.

Heard he’s going to Alaska. Jumping ship? Or given the state of the company....off to pursue other avenues per the usual after someone makes a huge mistake.

To be fair the bulk of the FO resignations are people not making it through training.

*Results Not Typical

If you accepted 7 junior mans last month and in the current month you are getting that credit then maybe these numbers can make sense if you added flying on those days. You mention conflict bidding and CDO's being thrown in. Are you a lineholder? Plus flying dropped in the new bid period during integration is not paid.


If it was all in the same month there is no way you worked 13 days with 7 junior mans at the same time. Screenshot your schedule and people might believe you.

Standard discussion format here:

1) LIFE HERE SUCKS
2) actually, it’s not that bad
3) IT’S TERRIBLE
4) here’s an example of how to make it less terrible
5) NOT POSSIBLE
6) it’s totally possible, here’s how I did it
7) POST IDENTIFYING INFORMATION PROVING YOU DID IT THAT WAY
8) um, I’d rather not? That seems like a bad idea.
9) TROLL!! MANAGEMENT TROLL!!!!!!!!!

Lol @t28.

Truth is lately I have no idea how my 4 day trip will go. It usually involves reroutes, multiple crew changes, and many many delays. I've been junior manned a couple times this year and have been unable to accept a couple junior mans. If you have legit reasons and work with them (hey I can't do that overnight but I can work up to this point for you) life will go better.
