PM line holder here. No OT last two months and each is 120 TFP with 15 days off. I'm a high time flyer to get those numbers (I live 1 hr 40 mins away driving). I'm at about 900 block last 365, but I typically am able to have at least a week off every month through adjusting my trips. I like off time.
You really can vary your schedules. I never bid AM's for example--which in my domicile gets me a hard line (weekend trips) and I'm less than 100 from the bottom of the FOs in base.

Good info and thanks.
I live outside of LAX. From what Ive read, OAK, LAS and PHX are junior and presumably I could pick up in any of those bases?
Doesn't sound to bad being able to fly out of Burbank to any of those.
Working does not bother me a bit. Im a high energy person and I can't stand sitting around.

One other thing... I don't think LAS and PHX have been that junior lately. Many newhires in BWI and MCO now... but worst case, you'd be able to get back to OAK in your second month most likely.

Some food for thought...

My hardline after IOE, I had 132 tfp. Granted, I ELINT the heck out of it and picked up 2 trips out of open time. Also, as a reserve OAK FO, I'm almost at 120 tfp without picking up any open time
