Very smart decision on your part to keep all options open. I realized after the furlough, that I needed to find something away from this revolving circus. Having timed the hiring cycles poorly, I figured I needed to find something else for when the next furlough comes. After 4 long years, I am...
It wasn't that long before the furlough that I was approached by MANY United FO's asking how they could get on with NETJETS. UAL was going down the toilet rapidly and they wanted out. Point being, the only certainty with aviation is change. Things could get worse or they could get better. Giving...
Thx Gut.
Taking the time to do that is very much appreciated. Now that I'm ready to return to flying, I can't wait to get that currency back so I can look for a better job :D
I for one will have no qualms about coming back for currency and flooding the market with apps like everyone else. After spending the last 4 years working towards getting my contractors license, I am now able to join the circus again. There is no way in hell I'm going back to the regionals for...
No disrespect, but are you kidding?!?!? Why would the company want to pay me and my fellow f-lows 8 year pay and growing when they can get 1st year guys to do the same job for a fraction of the pay?
I highly doubt the lawyer and his team care what the airlines are doing. We are a dime a dozen in...
You obviously haven't been exposed to the antics this union has showed towards us over the last 4 years. The list is long and distinguished. I think someone on our furlough site put it well. "amateur hour at its finest".
I would love to return to any contract at this rate, but I think most of...
I think the bigger question should be what legal recourse do we the 460 have when our beloved NJASAP kicks us down the river for a pay raise for the active group? It's painfully obvious where we stand in this group. Whenever this subject is brought up, all you hear is "we have no intentions of...
Jackpot!!!
Now the union pretends to deny this 10% BS rumor isn't a union problem, but simply a union rep stating his opinion:puke: They negotiate a pay raise and all the while stating to management and line pilots that all the furloughs have moved on. Lets not waste any more precious resources...
Nice to see Jordo is sticking to the playbook. Seems to be working nicely with many PIC's and virtually all FO's looking elsewhere for employment. Spoke with a pic buddy this week and he said NJ was getting 100-150 fatigue calls a week. I about fell over when I heard that. He was adamant that it...
If it was a paper recall, wouldn't they wait till the very last date possible instead of the Nov1? Either way, I'll wait for the mailman to bring me a present before I get my hopes up.
I get the feeling standing here on the sideline, that even if all the blue hairs were grounded, it wouldn't bring a furlough back. This emt would probably let the house of cards cave in before they admit defeat by bringing just one furlough back. It would make hiring waaaaaaay down the Road a...
I think the only way we can slow that number down is to emphasize to the active group that extending is hurting them(not us furloughed). There are many who feel the plight of the 495 outcasts, but many don't care or even know we're still furloughed. Pilots through history have shown they protect...
I would wager a guy like that never gave a damn about the backs he had to walk on to get that extra cash. Sympathy's for his kid. Him.......not so much!
