It's hardly above min guarantee, so I don't see why you'd bid one of these lines when there are open 4/3 schedules that credit 47+ hours. On the flip side, if you really don't want to work, there are available 4/5 lines (yes, 4 on/5 off) at the ALB outstations that pay min guarantee. Since people are only working slightly above min guarantee with these STL lines anyway, I'd much rather take the extra days off.
Now, if you're from the area it could be a great move. Not everyone wants the Rutland or Saranac Lake high time lines.

My MWA line just got bumped up to 41 hours, so it's not that bad. And as was mentioned, living out here is really cheap. I'm alone in a 3bdr, and I'm paying $600/month. If I get two other people here, the rent goes up to $750... still, $250/person/month? And cable/internet... Basic, HBO, Encore, Starz, HDTV package, DVR, On Demand, 15Mb high-speed... all for $84/mo. It's very cheap out here.
I'm not "making" as much, but I'm sure not spending as much either!
