I wasn't stating an argument for not moving on to mainline. It goes without saying that mainline is a better job than a regional. I was responding to a different poster. My seventeen days off home by supper time with the 20th through 28th of December off (no vacation used) schedule comment was about what sort of schedule a new hire could expect at RAH after about two years on property.
Re: "getting out." I have just a few goals for my career - single income family, reasonable job security, and a schedule with the most time at home possible. If I were staying in CMH my entire career, Republic would satisfy that goal better than any other company. The grass is greener here in CMH than I could find anywhere else as long as I live here. I am moving soon and will have to commute, however, so my apps are going in over the next few months. I don't want to commute to this employer or any other regional if I can help it. That breaks up my career goals too much.

It's voluntary. Great job for my wife and the chance to be close to family. Everything we could want other than having to commute!

I’m still waiting for someone to correct me. The data is correct. You haven’t addressed which data you think is incorrect.

He might still be here, maybe he's really gone? but in any case he's obviously trolling the FB page and definitely one of those guys who moves on ha ha ha. On a mission to stop the hiring at Republic and a mission to screw with growth, upgrade and careers of people he used to apparently (or still does) called colleagues. One of those that take a sh!t in his own backyard. what a small minded person.

Here's the reality - for those of us that have moved on from RAH, we really cannot fathom how anyone can justify not trying to get out of that company. Any of us that have moved on and seen how the other side lives cannot believe what we were forced to endure at that company. La Quintas in some of the shadiest areas of town, schedulers who went out of their way to make life miserable, CPs who deliberately tried to destroy careers, sim instructors who used the sim for their own personal vendettas, pilots who used the 170 as their own personal Ferrari and are still employed, horrible trips that start early, end late, and on and on and on.
I've talked with my friends who have moved on from RAH and we all basically conclude that "my worst day at (insert legacy) is better than my best day at RAH." If you truly believe that you have it good at RAH, you don't know what good is. And you can justify it all you want with "I can't take the paycut" or "I have a good QOL". You have no idea what a good QOL is, and if you can't cut your pay a few bucks an hour, you've horribly mismanaged your finances. Stop pretending that you somehow have it better than you do.

With that said, we need a new contract to survive. We are definitely under paid and many aspects of our current contract need work.
