4-6 legs? That's easy sauce there!

How I miss being completely wiped out after 8-10 legs!

Here is a recent four day from PSP.

It's terrible how they throw in the early show on the last day. Maybe commuters like it that way but your body clock is set to go to bed late and sleep in for three days then they hit with with a super early show.

When you overnight, do you share a room?

Still pretty easy as you had an autopilot, bathroom, APU, and FA.

You only share a room during initial. You can get single occupancy, but the company has you chip in for that. You'll have your own room for everything after initial (overnights, recurrent, etc).

Completely agree. Lots of coffee helps.

And that's only your first initial. When you go to a new airplane, you'll have your own room. Just to re-iterate, the only time you'll share a room at SkyWest is as a new hire during initial. Even that sucks, I don't like that policy and wish we had removed it during our last "negotiation".

Don't blame me, I voted for Macias.

Thanks guys, have any idea how much to pay for your own room?

I investigated it (and did for FTD/simulator). I think it was around $400 or so. Don't quote me on that or hold me to it, though. Too many cycles.

I can't remember, but it's quite a bit. I had considered it, but then decided I was better off keeping the money. Fortunately for me, my roommate was awesome and we are now good friends. They do seem to do an excellent job at matching everybody up.

Me too brother. Heck, he's the one that got me a job here!

He's a good guy. I reserve comment on the current administration.

(Of course, "no comment" is actually a comment, so yeah.)

I hear ya. Doesn't he live somewhere near you?

 

[Seggy]

Y'all have a union?

Affirmative.

 

[Skåning]

Hahaha

Paying for your own room = no bueno
