i'm proud to be an angry FORMER ExpressJet pilot.
if you're not fuming over the working conditions that have been allowed by the pilot force at CAL then i don't know how to convince you otherwise.
thanks for lumping the FORMER ExpressJet pilots together. if we are all seen as angry and willing to push back when we are shoved around then i have no problem with the label.
CAL pilots continue to tear open their own wounds and i don't get it. move onward and upward and stop blaming others for where we are. it's my fault and it's your fault and it's OUR responsibility to fix things.
time to get started...
Once again, voluntary junior manning at 150% pay over this weekend, with 150 getting furloughed in two weeks. How many "volunteers" to put guys on the street? I wonder how many will be volunteering after people are actually on the street.
You must be an another angry Express Jet pilot who things the world (and CAL) owes them something. I've been furloughed from another major and had to start all over again. I'm tired up people blaming others about this job as if they had "no idea" what they were getting into. If you don't like it, it's your own fault for coming. You need to rethink your research methods and grow up.
Either the pilots are getting more unified or the company is simply running out of pilots. I got called for FO junior manning today at 2am for 840am show (didn't answer the phone). Looked at it this morning and they couldn't get any takers, including captains, for the 1.5 junior man pay and they were out of FO reserves, so they assigned a reserve captain to the right seat to cover it. I wonder how many flights were cancelled this summer due to lack of crew.
It would be funny if all the CAL boys decided to take there 737 type ratings and get hired at Southwest. LOL
I'd even consider going to Southwest, except for the fact that I have no desire to be a gear jerking bump-on a pickle fo again. Besides, like I always said, I land bettr from the left seat anyways. <wink wink> LOL
Good luck to all the CAL guys getting furloughed. I bet that you'll easily find a better job than CAL.
Oh, and how come no one ever listens to me. LOL
