Yea, I'm trying to stay here. If I got some NYC based I'd move back to RIC. Shorter commute and most of my family is there at the moment.

You'll do fine at envoy if you want to stay in DFW. Commuting adds a whole other level of stress to the job. Live in base and drive home when your done and forget about work until your next sequence. Worrying about weather and flight loads and all that isnt worth it if you have an option to live in base.

these envoy threads are so frustrating, i should just say thanks but no thanks on my conditional offer and go interview at republic or something because I honestly have no clue who to believe. It sounds like no end in sight to all the misery going on. Cr700 and dacuj can feel free to not reply because I least of all believe them.

Misleading, it starts to leave in April(Ric says) he hopes more then 1 a month(union/company meeting, a few weeks ago). So while we may have some on property, they're leaving starting in April 2017.

But if they do continue to leave a 1 per month there might only need to be a small displacement bid at the end.

You might want to add smutter to the list as well. He is really good about mixing facts with lies. Anyone who says Envoy is shrinking [B]going forward[B] is crazy. We hired 70 pilots in December. Classes are filling up fast. But he is absolutely right that schedules are bad. That's why I love reserve. I get late starts early finishes. 90-110 credit. 14-15 days at home. Less than 10 overnights per month. Every now and then we get hit with a crazy month that makes me want to bid a line but then I get months like November and December where I hardly work at all.

This is wrong. I have over a decade at Envoy. I have three weeks of vacation, am not close to getting 4, and when I go to AA in 2018 I will lose the extra vacation just like any other AA new hire. Also, I do keep my apps updated.
