12, as in the number of JB whiners on here.
Look, I get it, the lack of a contract after 3+ years sucks. And I feel for you folks because of that. But it WILL come. Others have waited longer.
I’m not there, and I don’t know what “the suck” is like, but I talk to JB pilots in person who say it is not as bad as portrayed here on APC. Some are actually happy to be there. And for some regional pilots, it’s a step up QOL and pay wise. But it’s hard to put yourself in THEIR shoes when your shoes feel so pinched and miserable. But it can still be a better place to move up to for them.

Sorry Rocky, I don't trust you.
Anyone who thinks this place is the dogs balls while things have never been worse either has very serious judgement issues or worse.
Since I do not trust you, I will not be identifying myself to you so you can use it against me when you get to be junior chief pilot. Also, I hear enough of your words on here, I definitely don't want to hear more of them...

Not sure who Rocky is?

Yeah dude... Wait until you get accosted by a non-lanyard-wearing, company believing Captain for not cleaning during a (delayed) scheduled 38 minute turn in SFO when your release is not at the gate and the TDY maintainers are late because the rest of them got fired for time card fraud (mad props to the BOS and JFK guys that are sent out west to backfill that avalanche of debauchery). We’ll chat then. For those of you coming here and wanting to come here, welcome, and best of luck. You’re going to fly with the best in the industry. Steel yourselves for a fight and support the union. Don’t settle for second best. The contract will come if we stop accepting trash as the norm. Until that day, Fly SOP and wear your lanyard.
They are not in the military where they can give you orders. They have no legal right to force you to do anything. You can always walk off the job. You are a free civilian and citizen of the United States, not a Chinese worker for Foxconn making iPhones in a country where your employer has legal powers.

So no, champ, I won't be identifying myself to future junior chief pilot.
I'm just glad it's so much better at JB these days right?
