my QOL is not that bad.
I dont live in st louis, I just live in indiana and I drive in and out for my trips unless it is a real early show or something like that, and then I stay a night in the crash pad.
I am right now getting almost always three days off in a row, and often times 4 or more.
the lines at least what I am getting are busy and spread out, but I am lazy I like flying two legs and sleeping for 12 or 13 hours. I know there are others that cannot stand those kind of parings.
For me at least, once out on the line, I am most of the time contetnt with what I am doing.
Might be cause I am just starting 6 days off in a row today.
who knows. I do think it is what you make of it, and for me and I feel just fine for now.

Yeah, it's the state of things right now. I think RAH is the only one that you could consider having what were once considered the "standard" times of 100/100. Just about every other regional out there is hiring at much less than that.
A chance to get a dig at the almighty SAABaroowski is something I couldn't pass up.

RAHs minimums aren't concrete, there aren't too many places that won't budge. SKW will now drop below 1000, but only if you came from one of the training academies that they have agreements with or were an intern. As for XJT I wonder about a place that hires 75% of the people they interview. I guess the airlines just don't have the options they used to. Maybe thats why SKW can't fill classes

murl, i won't, but i'm sure you might be able to find someone who will. I think i'm done walking in stuff for people here, had to many friends fail out, and i don't want to feel even partially responsible for getting them started on the wrong foot.
As for upgrade time, most of my class (sept) will be eligible for upgrade in another 12-14 months, so depending on how many CQFO's they hire, upgrade might be put off for only a little bit, might be on time, or could be put off indefinately. Not knowing is the worst thing about this place.

I am pretty sure that they are contractually obligated to move the CQFOs back to the ride side when more people are able to upgrade. There was a very large grievance that we won because of that not long ago.
