First off - I was saying what you did was achievable after some on here were doubting you. Forgive me for backing you up - I'll try not to do that again.
Secondly - I am pretty sure I have a very good idea how you do it. Or do you think you have cleverly discovered a unique way to maximize your pay that only you are privy to and all your fellow Delta Pilots are just too obtuse to figure it out?
In any case like many have said - I doubt all of QOL givebacks will get in the way of you earning 150 hours a month the easy way, while the rest of Yes voters are busy selling our greedy souls for the $$$$.
