1- Don't believe anything you hear the hiring board tell you.

2- Don't believe anything the training department tells you.

3- Don't believe anything you hear in the crew room.

4- Don't leave one regional for another. No, not even for a two year upgrade. That was for people hired two years ago, not for you.

5- Don't include your per diem when you tell another pilot how much you made/make.

6- Turn off the hot mic when you take off your headset or chew anything.

7- Getting a bigger regional jet just makes you regional pilot that much longer.

8- Becoming a pilot won't get you any more chicks than if you became a banker. They just happen to be flight attendants instead of tellers.

9- Don't take yourself too seriously and for crying out loud don't grow a mustache unless you're running for ALPA office.

10- Mesa sucks.
 
11- Don't believe anything you read on flightinfo.com, with the exception of number 3, 6, 8, 9, and 10 above.

And regarding number 8, if your dating options are limited to the flight attendants/tellers of the world, you just might want to get a life.

Reference #10.

All bets are off at Mesa.
 
-always take the first available upgrade (espicially if you don't have any previous 121 PIC turbine time)
 
14. Each morning on rsv grab coffee, sit in driveway and watch your neighbors go to work.

Watch your neighbors come home nice and warm with their family at 6pm while you're holding somewhere over JFK in icing looking at your limited options and where you went wrong in life.
