Before you say anything allegiant makes a whole lot of sense for regional FOs, going to allegiant is considered a step up. If you're a captain it's a downgrade in pay for a while.

Don't just look at the pay. Unless you live in a base and have no attachments, think twice. You might make more, but divorce and child custody lawyers are expensive too.

Living in base is a moot point. As a junior FO/CA you will be sent all over the country for the company. And you'll like it.

Amazing how the "selfie" of the guy with the O2 mask showed him using it incorrectly.

Good luck to the crew, for their impending “Safety-Briefing”. All CVR and DVR I’m sure have been fully downloaded by now. What’s that you ask? Oh, we don’t have a Union gatekeeper to safe guard the crew from any ancillary information. I sure hope the captain gave the SREAM in complete detail prior to departure.

Can anyone tell me if there is a CPO in PIE, and can I get there without a SIDA badge?

Skip the CPO. If you really want the job show up at the training center on the 14th and they will probably slot you in instead of one of the no shows.

Pulse? check

License? check

Medical? check

Hired!

Getting through the training is the interview now. IF you make it through, welcome aboard the worst ride of your life. If not, good luck in the unemployment line, your new PRIA entry will surely impress your future employers. And if you're looking for that brass ring bypass to the left seat, multiply the above difficulty factor X 10. Best of luck!
