Seriously guys I hear things are really not good there. They don't have block or better and fly a lot in and out of EWR. My buddy told me the other day he was doing PHL-EWR and was on the aircraft almost 5 hours and got paid for less than an hour (at $21 an hour second year FO). I have a friend who's been there 3 years and still not upgraded, so there goes your quick upgrade argument. Seriously guys at what point is it no longer worth it? Six days on with one off at less than 20k a year? You could work full time at Mcdonalds and be home a lot more, not to mention make more money. Not hating on CommutAir guys they are a great group, just wondering how far some guys are willing to go for this job......

$21/22/23 for your first 3 years, No Block or Better, No pay for Deadheads and probably reserve in Newark doesn't sound very appealing to me.
And yes, I know they voted in ALPA and working on a contract, blah blah blah just like every other bottom feeder that had quick upgrades and is now struggling with crappy pay and QOL because there is no movement.
