Fwiw......a sage observation I will pass along..... no matter how much money you make 'working the system'....... it will ever be enough to pay for what a divorce will cost you.:D

So keep the important stuff in focus.

Several "angry" yes voters on this forum as well, but I don't take it personally. Come December 2nd, the sun will rise and life will go on. We'll move onto the next topics, whichever way the vote turns out, and life will go on.

Do you buy the beer on layovers?

Still waiting to hear how QOL is going down the tubes with the TA. It's by no means perfect, but flying a 100 green slips a year, QOL can't be at the top of the list.

More about chasing money.

Was leaving out the "n" a Freudian slip? :)

Not necessarily. When they are short and you really work it, you can easily make 2-3X pay while working, worst case, the exact same amount and usually less. While OE trip drops will still remain, any reduction in those absolutely does reduce the number of opportunities to get paid to be home, which is, of course, a QOL issue.

While I don't think it benefits us to over exaggerate the effects of the changes, the company keeps chipping away at it, and that's something we have to keep an eye on.

I know the question was directed at Tanker, and not me, but I bought beer - and sometimes food - on EVERY greenslip trip I was awarded.
