I can see why your wife wouldn't want you home, but I can assure you mine is always wanting me home. We have been together for over twenty years now and are still having a blast together.

I’ll never forget being in the van with an old grumpy 60+-year-old ER captain in DCA. He was grumbling about his wife and this came out of his mouth verbatim. “Im the best thing that ever happened to her”……ill never forget that

And if it is true, I really feel sorry for her.

good god man, you are either a liar or a real piece of work…..i pity any and every student youve ever had.
And you should. I make them buy all the beer.

When have you heard me 'whine about personal financial hardships"? Could it be that you were just looking for a boogyman?

here’s an example:

I didn't say I was. But there were plenty just junior to me that were. I was at the lowest paying seat in the company for 5 and a half years. And my first upgrade was at the "C" scale. 76B>73A>72C ANd when DEX went away, I couldn't hold 73A. Had to go back to 7ERB. At year 10. The seat that is now a new hire position.

But as I have said before, I had it pretty good. Ask some of the guys that really got furloughed. Time/value of money at $0 income for 5-6 years pretty much invalidates that 'greed' moniker you are foisting on them.

I wonder if 10 year ERB pay is lower or higher than RJ FO pay

That doesn’t matter to him. You weren’t a person before you were on property to JB. Your struggles, even if directly related to the same events, didn’t matter before you were there.

this is the moment when the other pilot across the desk looks you in the eye and says “really dude?”

you have been whining on this board for YEARS about how you need a better retirement…….YEARS of sh1tting on alpa and trying to claw back something in the contract that would have a cost everyone money.

gmafb mr. Leader check airman…..you make 800k plus, and now want to force everyone into another 2 years of work to get to the seat you already own? Its so disgusting and dishonorable you should lie awake at night wondering if youre a good person.

i cant believe humans like you exist and dont feel wracked with guilt.
