Yeah my buddy just called me, hes like dude Im gonna hold CA, I laughed, first off 1/2 of the G6 numbers would probably bust the training, second the FO's that could upgrade at the CAL bases in a few months I am sure will sacrifice living in ONT for the PIC as long as need be!

It won't be ALL junior. My buddy who's an 1/00 hire will be out there. If I'd had stayed I would've bid it too.

It seems like it was a pretty even spread. There were some top 100 guys and it trickled all the way down to 6/05 I think.

If you're thinking you are going to survive on FO pay in california(ont) you are crazy. It is way too expensive out there for an FO to live- trust me

While we're talking about domiciles, Houston isn't bad at all guys. I've talked to a bunch of west coast guys who came here and will never look back. You can get a great apartment in an awesome part of town for $675/month if you're a single guy.

Then again most of you Cali guys have already made up your mind. :P LOL. I see it with the Newark crews all the time. "Oh, Houston sucks but I hate commuting." Then you see them hop on the bus in the ghetto side of town because they didn't do their research. No wonder they hate it.
