See I would argue that being a captain makes the job more bearable, it doesn't make it a good job. As a captain, you still have to deal with management, terrible contract language and work rules, and the day to day beatings. Only difference is, you are paid pretty good...

Pay can ease a lot of pain, which is why it is sad and pathetic to see that the union flat out said that there will be no changes to salary, which basically means there will be no changes at all, just more management lies like "we are trying hard to change things, and these things take time."

Meh, not really. Not even close to the pay as a captain at the big boy carriers. NJ will always be the JV team...in both seats.

That’s why I only said pretty good. I agree.

Last minute row 36A seats on a Delta MD88, followed by an RJ destroying my bag second leg, followed by two mid tours commutes after another POS Citation broke, finished off with another Mad Dog screaming in my ear four legs home commute. If you really wanted to live in Billings, MT and fly airplanes you should really look at a scenic 135 gig.

Commuting sucks. Period. But commuting with NJA was only slightly better than a 121.

You must be buddies with someone in CMH because you were not in a B or E seat!
