What a friggin' dump. Abandon all hope, ye who enter here; wtf are you thinking?

Kinda funny one of the highest (if not THE highest) paid pilots on this board posted this.
 
Throw in 2 more days off (on a 30-31 day bid) and extend the on-call time from 12 hours to 15 and you have ASA reserve. :uzi:

And never mind the fact that only 4 of those 10 days off are biddable, the rest are assigned to you with no request system, or anything like that. The good news is, you'll rarely have the same days off that were on your "final" schedule.

Well tack Piedmont on that same schedule!!! Ain't ig great, especially when they only fly you half of those days:puke:
 
We get 10 days off.. reserve is around 12 hours...all 90 minute call, 75 hour guarantee.... Never thought one of our schedules would look good compared to something but that is just atrocious.

One huge difference: PDT ain't MESA, no matter how bad it gets here. That poor SOB above is making even less (a lot less) than you on RSV. Rough way to starve.
