I've read so many remarks about Silver, but are they good to work for? I can keep commuting to ORD for SkyWest or drive the ten minutes it takes me to get to TPA.

If you're already at SkyWest why would you leave? You're taking a massive step back in pay and QOL if you end up going to Silver. Plenty of us have left Silver and moved on...

If that's worth leaving SkyWest to fly a clapped out Saab and take a massive pay cut then by all means do it, but I have a feeling you'll have buyers remorse fairly quickly. Depending on the plane you're in it's pretty easy to get displaced and have most trips dropped and barely work, heck last month I worked 9 days and credited right around 85 hours. That'll take seniority and some luck to get, but that's beats the best day at silver even counting a crappy commute.

What base are you in that you can credit 9.5 hours per day?
