At this point the thread starter is somewhat full of it. We did receive word that if conditions did not improve in the coming weeks we would see a reduction in staff (not just pilots). No confirmation of furloughs yet, and certainly no numbers. Possible - Yes. Probable - more so than I'd like to admit. However, until it happens, please refrain from making statements as if they were factual.

It's the fear mongering.

He states it's a bad time to be a pilot.

In reality, it's simply a great time if you are employed regardless of what you do for a living or the career choices you've made.
 
I'll rephrase it for you Mr. Jetblue, since you're right. It is a bad time for ME to be a pilot, since I will most likely be out of a job here shortly, because of the dumb choice I made leaving a regional for a "secure" fractional job. I'm sure no Southwest captain is boohooing about it being a bad time to be a pilot. I stand corrected.


If things "imporve" in the next few weeks???? Please.......
 
Anyone who has a job should be happy in these times.

I have no desire to see ANYMORE pilots furloughed. Alot of these guys are friends of mine and they have families to support.

I wish CS success as with all the fractionals :)

I feel your pain.. I think about that 'choice' i made to go to the fracs also, but it's simply a timing issue. Life is much better here, BUT, it would be better there with a job, then at a frac without one..

And he said 6-10% which would be somewhere in the 20-38 range.

It's not fear mongering you idiot. Our CEO didn't do much to quell the fear. The guy may be at the bottom of the list. How the F woud you take it if it were you.

CS guys guys don't bother with you so piss off and go back to your own thread and leave us alone.

Actually, I get many PMs from CS guys that support my views. It's probably because they understand the points I make because they are non-union and want no part of your turmoil.
