Well if your on Bogeys side I hope we never recall your ass. You obviously didn't get to spend enough time at CA to see the other side of the story. That is Forced OT 16 tours out of 22 in one year, 10 hours min rest all tour long, not enough time to even eat between legs, 2 pay cuts in 2 years, 401K cut in half, disability insurance cut, health insurance cut, and 3 non legit firings currently in litigation, need I go on.
Its pansy ass appeasers such as yourself that have allowed overbearing managers to get away with this crap for to long. For our sakes I hope that hiring picks up so you can take your uninformed self elsewhere, don't need ya buddy...
This is such flame from rcr5. When you come back to the line, if you truly are a line pilot, I just might think your attitude will change. Get ready for the CJ3, glad to have you back. We could use some help. Just remember that bogey is a captain that is comfortable with the best job probably in his/hers career. After you see that your seat lock is extended, your pay is adjusted, and your vacation is manipulated, you might look at the big picture. A union may or may not be the answer, but don't look at it with such said aggravated conviction like you are one in the know.
You call what we do at CA, Netjets, or ANY other fractional, work? Are you kidding me? You ARE soft my friend. Were you raised with a silver spoon in your mouth?
You fly great equipment, to great places, staying in great hotels and you do it for HALF the fricken year at most! Oh no, only 10 hours of rest...wow, poor *************************, how do you make it? What am I really missing here? I worked there. I have been there and done that. It is NOT hard.
The company looks like it is trying to stay afloat in hard times....just like Netjets and the rest. They made cuts, so what? You have your job, right? I don't. What are you whining about?
I have found another job, but it made me realize just how good I had it at CA. How about you guys find another job somewhere and leave? Open up slots for those who really want to be at CA and make it a better place; not another company strapped by a union that is run by idiots for idiots.
BTW, do you actually have knowledge of the financial situation within the company? I doubt any of you do. I NEVER saw the company purposely try to screw anyone over. All this bad stuff that gets tossed around is generated by the union idiots trying to get in the door. Just like that letter that went around about safety issues a couple years ago that was proven to be utter bull********************! You guys have no scruples and will lie to your mothers on their death beds if it meant you could profit. GO %&$% yourselves!!!!!
I am sorry that you are furloughed. The pain and frustration you are experiencing is a tough thing to bear and it virtually bleeds out of your posts. I too have been furloughed in my career. It is one of the most difficult and ego busting experiences possible.
The problem I have with your posts is that you are blaming your fellow pilots who still have a job. Not all people who want a union are all "idiots" and "lazy". Your judgmental and fact less statements are proof that you are in pain, which we all understand, but taking it out on others who have nothing to do with your situation, that is another matter altogether.
If you are still furloughed from CA, then you were there just long enough to find the Cessna on the ramp without help. You have not experienced what most others at CA have and you don't have enough company knowledge to judge others this harshly. You also missed the last two years. Things have deteriorated tremendously since you last put on the yellow tie; Maybe still better than most 135 ops, but certainly not what it was just two years ago. A wise person in your shoes would listen up and try to understand his/her fellow pilots a little more before dismissing any and all who want nothing more than to protect themselves and their jobs.
Make no mistake, your point of view is quickly becoming the minority at CA. Something to consider before you come back.
You are such a little *************************! That really looks rough in light of those on the street just trying to get a check to feed their families you ********************ing loser! YOU and other like you are just what is wrong with CA. The fact the threat of a Union vote is hanging over their heads is the ONLY thing keeping them from firing your stupid ass.
You are a lazy, overpaid, underworked, whiney little bitch and if you were EVER to come out and meet me, I would put you in your place. But I KNOW you are nothing more than a keyboard tough guy.
Unjustified firings...that is a laugher. I spent many days listening to union lemmings like yourself tell me these stories as proof of why CA needs to vote in a union. Virtually every time these stories came up, the lemming was unable to support the story with facts. Go read your union board and come up with more lies to push. You have a CA FO here that will call you out every time on the FACTS!
You are damn lucky they still employ you and I wish you were on the street instead of the good people who are. You represent EVERYTHING that is wrong with CA and there is NOT a lot wrong with them in light of the current economic situation....which idiots like yourself fail to see.
So Meatwhistle, GO $%^& YOURSELF!!!!!!
I would love to meet you someday....but I know you are a coward.
