As soon as you can get a line (maybe a month or two at the junior bases) PBS will load you up with 90+ hours of credit every month.
Too bad you guys don't have an enforceable document like a Collective Bargaining Agreement that could possibly make life a little better.

Stock is marching downward. Not free falling yet, but replacement of the top financial guys in such a short period will cause more than a little investor unrest.

Just got the official offer!
Even though there was no sim, they still do a real interview and I am glad I passed it.
Since I have other offers from "quick upgrade" airlines, I have a tough decision to make! Anyone can list the major positives of the skw contract? I am hearing upgrade time is now down to 4 years.
Commute is not a factor as I will have to commute.
