Does your home life matter more?
I have seen too many guys who appear to be trading their quality of life at home for "quality of life at work". I'm talking about $$$$$$$$.
I love flying. I like aircraft and I like the people I work with. That said, I work to live. I do not live to work. The reason I work is to make $$$$ to give my family a life. They get no utility from any "perks' I have while I'm working.
I don't get excited about shiny new planes or perks on the job. I need $$$$$. We need to get back to the $$$$$$$.

I choose home and sitting reserve v/s a line and international. I would prefer to sit at home, bid reserve v/s commute and work.
Plan on working hard in the summer, but the rest of the year I find living in base and bidding reserve to be fairly enjoyable.

Are you talking about concessions just so that you can keep your job?
