But then if you fly a widebody that means you're gonna have a high likelihood of having to sit next to a guy for 5 hours at a time who commutes from BFE and drones on and on about how dangerous and expensive major cities are.

This is probably the generally correct answer.

Also those bears are the #1 cause of break ins here.

Most of the intl commuters I run into don't live in BFE, but rather large cities with good air service to their DL base. It's the 2 hour "locals" living in a lake house or on a runway that are more likely to drone on about their watch collection.

As a bonus, half of your cruise time in the cockpit you don't even have a captain sharing boat, plane, house pics. It's just two FOs chillin... 4 pilot trips are a little different because you end up with 2 x 3 hour shifts each day you work. Overall it's still less time in a pressure tube.

NYC makes zero sense to me. NYC7ERA is overstaffed, and yet they posted for 20 CA positions. Meanwhile, NYC320A has been understaffed since 2022 and they post 0 CA positions for months (years(?)) on end.
Another dozen are bidding out on the mid bid and ZERO backfills for NYC320A. There must me a planned drawdown in hours for NYC320 in the works. There's no way they can support current flying with that reduction. (I understand mid-bid is not final, but it usually shows backfills even if they don't make the final cut.)
EDIT: To add, looks like they did the same for NYC73NA. Zero openings posted, 10 bid out and zero backfills.

"How's your school team gonna do"
"Undefeated since 1926"
"Wat?"
Then comes the yes, I actually went to college, no, not a CC or Riddle, yes, we seriously had no sports teams. Just intramural sports between clubs and fraternities. Just a small engineering school in the hood.
(Grad school, they are actually a FB powerhouse, but I did the bulk of that remote, so I'm not really a football fan of them)
I think I might have one tshirt from my actual undergrad school. A handful of shirts from parties/events at my fraternity.
