"Necro",
I've got to disagree with you.
One of my "offspring" took a pay cut(like everyone else) , and had to relocate 50 miles away.
Now, where it did make sense for him,
1. he kept his health Insurance(A BIG thing nowadays)
2. lucked out, and wound up in the A/F house
3. has steady week-ends off,
and
4. has access to ample overtime.
"perhaps" the O/T is a result of the skeleton crew" manning, but since this DOES'NT pertain to AMFA(AMT's), there is NO union conflict of Interest(ex. performing struck work)
This may be an example of "the exception, rather than the rule".
Bottom line, seniority still has it's priveleges.
The old saying goes,"when given Lemons, make lemonade".
Personally, I tried my damn/nest to get him to go to ANC,
🙄 which would have put him in the top 10 in seniority(I really wanted to move there), but alas, my daughter-in-law THREATENED to KILL ME
NH/BB's
