The issue both had was theft. If your a gringo any property you have belongs to the locals if they can grab it. You will get zero assistance from the police. If you are going to be gone half the month you must live in a compound with private security. Even then budget for new TV's often.
The other issue is taxes. You will owe all US income taxes so make sure you will not get taxed again by the country you live in.

Not sure. The Company would not want you to drop your sched and pick it up at Premium Pay. But, I've been in the situation where I screwed up a blank WS, dropped a PD on it and got something else right away.
Behind on the honey do list, I will look it up tonight if someone smarter than I does not know the answer.

Any guesses as to why the ER is going so junior in ATL? The A320 and 737 are remaining pretty senior.
Crew planning should stop threatening fall displacements. ... although it might be a strategy to add another couple of Type Ratings to a Certificate that already does not fit in Delta's computer. 767>displace>717>bid A320 it makes more sense than a goat porn fetish, barely.

Hey guys, pay/reroute question. Flew into ATL last night at midnight and scheduled to layover. On the way off the a/c, scheduling calls and asks us if we can fly to TPA. 320 mechanical followed by no copilot for an 88. We were the third and final chance for 140 pax. Was that a proffer, ie, GS? Reroute pay? Nothing has popped up on our rotation yet and now we're double deadheading to SLC to pick up the rest of our rotation. Any help?

If they dared refuse ... dead gringo = vacant lot.

Yeah I think all that CA/SA stuff is hype and very selective optimism. Everyone acts like you can get a mansion for $200 a month and eat prime steaks for 25 cents in paradise on the beach but the reality is vastly different. I know someone (non aviation) who just tried it and very quickly came home. Adding in the equivalent of a trans con to double trans con commute each way for the myth of strong buying power just to be subserviant to a foreign justice system is absolutely laughable. Can't believe anyone would even consider it.

Adding more ER FO's? Is the 757 future looking brighter, or should we just expect more displacements?

Look at your time card for the reserve guarantee amount. When guarantee reaches 0, you are done.
