What's the big deal with weekends off. Can't go anywhere because it's crowded and there's a good chance your kids hate your guts anyway! :)

I have kids. I HATE weekends off. I much prefer going to the zoo mid week when it's not crowded. If I have things to do the stores aren't busy. Somehow I got weekends off last month ( no I did NOT bid for that!).

Worst. Month. Ever.

I was so happy when I woke up one Friday morning to get ready for work. "Finally! I'm working the weekend!"

Damn I hate weekends off.

I didn't bid for them either, but I got awarded 100% of them this month as well. I didn't want them. Just worked out that way with my 4-3 cadence. Next month will be another matter.

Although I will say I absolutely LOVE helping people with PBS - I've helped steer a lot of folks into getting if not what they exactly want, better schedules and more control at least. Seven chances for success, kids.

I my have to pick your brain on PBS a little. I'm on the cusp of being a junior line holder and I "think" I'm bidding well based off of what I have read but another set of experienced eyes could always help

Beware of "avoid reserve," especially in an overstaffed category.

Right, @JordanD?

Those of us who want weekends off usually have working spouses or non-aviation friends. It's nice to be able to hang out with regular folk now and again.

That sounds hideous! :)

Beer and buffalo wings ruined by idiotic airline questions and "Doooood, I need a buddy pass, there's this family emergency in Honolulu going on in a couple months, can you hook me up with six? Totally gotta be there"

Drunk on a Wednesday, count me in!

Isn't your spouse a non-aviation person? ;)

@Kristie how do I convince my SO to quit her career so we can travel on our days off instead of being mired in her 9-5 rut. :P
