Recoveries

Bent -- those great "recovery time" stories are old tales. I know first hand that many of your current recovery time statistics are "adjusted" to make it look better. NJ is no longer the recovery time leader and would have fewer recoveries if scheduling was better. That is like saying you put out fires faster than other fire departments, but the "better" fire department is one that practices fire prevention.

Plus, NJ lags the competition in the recovery time I think is most important to pilots -- recovering furloughed pilots and hiring more pilots.

Hey, my glass is still half full. But that's because Sokol pissed in it...

The way Sokol ran the show I have traded in my glass for a five gallon bucket. I am thinking I might need to find something bigger. Does anybody have any suggestions?

 

[CA1900]

Naw, the bucket should be fine. I found some video of it in action...

So we're still waiting for the shake.

Are people still on property and working really looking @ going to places like JB, SWA, Allegiant, Airtran, Spirit, etc. I hope I didn't miss a lcc.

HA! Perfect.

 

[B-J-J Fighter]

HA! Perfect.

Ca1900 do you have calls out to Mark D. to get back on at Commutair???

 

[CA1900]

I heard he's a fed now! Guess the glamor of commuting wore off.

I think I'd rather shoot myself than take a second run at the regionals. If this doesn't work out, I'll probably attempt a career change.

That's what I did, and it sucks. Groundhog day man. I'd love to get back in an airplane, but I'm not selling my soul to do it.

If you're in the bottom 3-600 I'd start firing off resumes.

Mike Maratto.... (I've seen you reading this board) You're going to be in the same unemployment line as the pilots if you management types don't jump on board and help run Hansell off. He WILL kill NJA.

Things are good.

Take your 5 pound bucket and lay it on top of the banana hammick.

I'm sure it will stay upright.

What's this Mike's handle here? Be nice to have a new guy to f$$k with:beer:

 

[BentOver]

Two breaking news announcements!!

Jetblue receieves approximately 1000 Netjet applications. (completely made up but probably pretty accurate!)


And the big one....Netjets management has completed their PLANOGRAM on 8/26.... The PLANOGRAM is related to the onboard snacks... Which begs the question...what the ******************** is a PLANOGRAM and did it cost more than the study on square plates?


Finally....besides my other interests in life, I would also really enjoy seeing RTS somehow get NJA back. And it would be my greatest joy to see him fire every last one of the guys there.. Hell, if he'd let me I'd like to be the security that escorts them off property.

Sorry, but you're going to have to do you own homework there. I believe it's a TOS violation, and flat out disrespectful.

Didn't know if he was on the dickhead side or a descent guy? If he's a good guy but stuck in the NJA management mess that's cool. I never heard of Mike M.? Or what he does......

On the other hand, if someone like Eyer or the General happened to be on these boards I'd rat them out in a heartbeat.

Mark was a really nice guy, I'm glad he landed a job at the FAA. I personally used what I thought Commutair was good for at the time and got my first 121 job, probed I could make it thru training and went to one of the 'better' regionals out there. It worked for me, do I want to spend my career here, no way. At least though where I'm at I can make north of 100k as a lifer and get most of the days off I want. I know you spent several yrs at UCA and I feel for you. Theres way better jobs even at the regionals than commutair, in fact it was the worst of my 3 part 121 jobs.
