And a side note..I'm a first year f/o and I'm on track to pull 35k this year....Don't blame the industry for the decision to go to work for the wrong carrier...19K sucks..I never said it didn't. But why work for a carrier that pays that low to begin with? Who is the more foolish...the foolish company, or the fool that applies to work for the foolish company?
We've got the industry leading contract right now (you can figure out who I work for by my avatar), and I'll make $19,000 this year. Sucks when you're on reserve and the bypass level is 60 hours.
