You get paid more, but take home less.

You'll be off reserve in a couple months at ORD.

I second that, you may not get any sympathy from a 30000-35000ish number. Just saying.
That was a rough time for all of us, even those not at the airlines. I would have preferred being at SkyWest during those years compared to the crap I had to deal with at my 135 gig... I really thought I was going to lose my job, and in fact my CP at the time threatened us with it all the time as a bullying tactic. SkyWest would have been a much better place to spend those years than most places.

Anyone knows how long it normally takes to get called for an interview once you send them your application.

just the opposite.. off rsv on the erj currently but strategically concerned about going back on rsv for the next 2 years the way people are making it out to be

im thinking if its worth it to jump ship when at such an early stage.. most likely the answer is undertermined

How long does it usually take to hear back from Skywest once you apply? I applied 2 days ago and no response. Any bonus for having the CL-65 type?
