At 19.25 an hour you out of you mind bro. Every base above except PDX and TUS would cost your whole pay check just for rent.! If you come to SkyWest expect a 5-7 plus year upgrade and maybe even furloughs with a possible Delta NWA merger and the age 65 rule stagnating things. ASA has furlough protection but SkyWest does not so if cuts are to be made they will be made here... Don't blame me I was one of the 900.
SkyWest is one of the best regionals because of the people you get to work with but it is foolish to believe the previous quick upgrades will be around in this new enviroment. If Delta UA merge it will be devastating to SkyWest as many RJs will be parked. We overlap in DEN/SLC and LAX among others. Brasilias are sceduled to be retired over the next few years so they will go more senior then they have been. I am not doom and glooming I am just making sure you go in with your eyes wide open and the stay here with them half shut. Good luck. This is going to be a wild ride until merger mania works itself out.
I rented a pretty nice apartment in SMX for $500 a month...
