What’s the biggest piece of advice any of you could give a 121 new hire FO?
I’ll take anything I can get at this point. You guys have been through it before and I want to be a sponge and try to soak up as much knowledge as I can.

Don't get comfortable until you get to your "dream job", and then don't get complacent once you get there. Respect the career. Have fun, but work hard. It always pays off in the end.

Stay on target until you reach your career goal. Any laxness on that will result in lost opportunities and long-term cost ib QOL and compensation.

It is very easy to get lazy once you get to being a senior FO or a senior captain at a regional. Once you are holding a good line, holding vacations off during the holidays, and making decent money, it is easy to just hang back and let it ride while you enjoy it for a few years. But you are giving up serious seniority at a legacy airline by doing so. Trade a couple of "easy" years for a great 15 years at the end of your career and a few million dollars.

Invest as much money as you can when you’re young. Live for cheap. Cut your food and housing costs as much as you can while socking money away. Try to live for free if you can.
