Im making on good months $1000 more under PBS than I would have made with line bidding due to being able to hold a line vs reserve. Wallow in your own misery cackel, cuz its a party on my side of the fence!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thoroughly pathetic.
From what I have heard, at Xpress Jet, their bids come out a different time every month, and I am guessing the awards date is a moving target also? Is that true?
I'm actually making more with PBS. Now when I stretch 1 week of vacation into 5 weeks I still make 75 hours...under the old system I was getting hit with MMG and losing 20-25 hours. I love PBS...

Fresh off reserve FO's are like rescued greyhounds. No matter what you feed them or how bad you beat the hell outta them, they're just happy to have a home... and a line.
The other side of the coin is the senior FO who is going to have to wait longer for his 40% pay raise because now the captains are that much more efficient that they don't need as many reserves.
The upgrade argument doesn't really hold water. Things are stagnant, less a few random batches, until age 65 clears the backlog of geezers. When things break loose, it will break loose in a HUGE way, and that's when the upgrades will start happening in notable quantities. Until then, we're just stuck in our seats, PBS or no PBS. The "10-15% longer" will equate to a few months, at that point.
