I purposely bid Xmas eve & day and NYE & NY day (LAS overnight...could be dangerous) for the extra 21 hours in pay.
That's what's great about the airlines. With enough seniority, you can do what you actually want.

So why did you start one?!
That's actually a feature, not a bug, because now you get another 10% VA disability. These boots make you money!!!
I don't recall if I got mine wide or not...but I hiked Banff (no ruck) and didn't have any complaints.
Not on the flight list but I wear these (self sourced) and love them:

Qatari F-15QA doing an impressive routine at the Dubai airshow. It appears 2x 30k motors, clean/no CFT's, and the fly by wire really turned the Eagle into a low speed monster.
Doesn't look nearly as good as Band of Brothers...I imagine it'll be on par with The Pacific, IMO. Appears to have lots of CGI, which is also a bummer.
...it's about the sharks. When you were frozen, they were put on the endangered species list. We tried to get some, but it would've taken months to clear up the red tape.
If those UPS pilots who took the early retirement still get their full benefits and there isn't any fine print traps...this seems like an easy way to get an extra $250k + whatever PSA's CA pay rate is + their full UPS retirement.
But, I'd guess it would work out to being only slightly more than what they made as a 15 year UPS CA and then you'd have to deal with being the most junior pilot at a regional...which would probably be very painful at 60+ years old.
Agreed. But, on the list of stupid shit we spend money on...there are a lot worse investments.
