All the sim lines ending by the end of June with many less than 60 days from start. Pretty efficient with good breaks to reset. They encourage going home on weekends and not sticking around.

Wow, 60 days! That is neat. Incredible, Thank you!

Glad to know I am not the only one! Thanks.

We started with 20

That’s not true. My 2021 class has less than 20 left. We started with close to 30.

Your on call most of the time within a 2 hour callout and QOL is just not worth it compared to knowing your schedule in advance and being able to plan your life around work. If you plan on staying here, there are talks of year 12 pay rates for CA’s pushing $320 hopefully within a year before the NK merger. Once we come out with an industry leading contract like that, others will also follow and pay for everyone in the airline world will get better. Now of course, one can also argue that the extra pay will do little with this clown in the White House and inflation the worst it’s been ever.
