Makes that SWA selection process even more bizarre, if what u guys saying is true.

Whats bizarre about it?!?! Kinda like United years ago.....if you are female you get the call. All kidding aside, she looks good on paper, but I believe was a bit power hungry.

Darn I finaly make a good point on FI and I address the wrond dude.

Many apologies safety.

Hey Clueless, would you care to switch sreen names.

CS seems to try hard, but if you think you could work there for 20 years, you're on crack.

Are you the first peson in aviation history to predict what will happen 20 years from now.
Last I checked most people are not able to predict what will happen next week

My comment about working there for 20 years had absolutely nothing to do with whether CS will be in existence in 20 years or not...who knows?

It had to do with the fact that IMHO I don't see how anyone could stand to work there for 20 years, especially with only one week of vacation for the first five years.

By the time you got to your fifth year anniversary, you'd be one burned-out, possibly bitter dude. Opinion only. YMMV.

Clueless..........seems like you are a bit. Did you ever ACTUALLY...WITH YOUR OWN EYES....READ THAT LETTER. Your right to a degree......it started off very good, with valid points. It then turned into a rant about things that she should not be concerned about. "Why are there so many VP's" to paraphrase an example. Why......because we are growing and need them. What does it matter to you!?!? I happen to know this particular person to which you ellude and DO NOT miss her. Believe me....I am not the only one that feels that way.

Yes, I saw it. I agree that the second half would have benefited from some judicious editing. But that doesn't change the fact that most of what was in the memo was reasonably accurate and a good barometer of the line pilots.

I never flew with this individual, so I can't comment on what that may or may not have been like.

CS is an OK place to work. Get on, get your time, and move up the food chain. CS is simply not a career gig. Opinion only. Maybe it will be someday. I hope so...there are lots of good folks there.

Hey HumpedBogart, NOBalls1, and others

We all get that you could not get along with her and you breath easier, blah, blah, blah.

KL was someone who stood up for others(at great personal risk) and treated everyone she came in contact with, with respect. She liked to teach and the only types who seemed to have a problem with her had too much ego to shut up and listen. As for the others who comment on her looks, etc are showing themselves for the moroons that they are.

The main difference between her and you all is the fact that she did not hide behind an avatar while speaking her mind. The only thing that makes me "squirm" is your stoneage mentality.

Yummy. Chocolate moroons are my favorite. :0

 

[OHGOON]

Absolutely chocolate moroons are good, plain ones are better but my reference was a nod to Warner Brothers' Bugs Bunny "What a moroon"...

Hee....Hee....Hee NoBalls.....thats a funny one. Take you all night to come up with that one?!? First of all.....you are one to talk about hiding behind avatars. I speak my mind to plenty (and not just the line pilots) in the company. When is the last time you called your ACP about some of the crazy rumors floating around, issues or just to say Hi. I bring up issues in a thoughtful and respectful manner. It is the difference in leading the horse to water and kicking the living crap out of it to the hole. During the brief time I spent with her we got along just fine. Dosen't mean I want to do it again. As far as her teaching. Ask some of the many that have flown with her.....yeah she was pretty good, but people don't learn to well when a meat mallet is used.

Done with this one......hope she is happy and from what mutual friends tell me....she is.

Hi spaceball 1,

1) You are right.... it was real difficult to resmith your handle.

2) personally I only call my ACP to say HI, I let you "out in the open" kind of guys speak for me in all other matters...

3) Not sure about the "kicking the living crap out of it"...hole? She must have forgotten the meat mallet when we flew together.

4) You are right to point out that I too am hiding behind my Avatar; the difference is that I did not besmurch your reputation publicly using your real identity. I guess that was just a momentary lapse in your otherwise "thoughtful and respectful" manner....

5) I am sure she misses you too.:bawling:

Just curious, what does it take to get a final interview from Citation shares. Got the two calls, then rather than call you again, they e-mail and say not interested.

I got FOUR calls. All seemed to like my background and experience and I answered all of the questions correctly..all the time stressing customer service. Then I get an email from someone I've never spoken with (the CP) saying they are not interested. No DUI, no busted checkrides, no accidents/incidents, two type ratings, 135 glass cockpit experience, security clearance, etc. WTFO? I guess I'm not qualified.

 

[7on7Off]

Its all about attitude. If you get more than two calls, just remember more is not better.

Odds are they are sitting looking at you on paper liking what they say, but not liking what they hear over the phone. So they will call more to see if it improves...


Just my two cents

Clearly you weren't viewed as a potential a$$-kisser. I would take your Gulfstream experience and move over to Netjets (NJA or NJI). Netjets is growing and you have union protection - you don't have to live according to someone's subjective whims...

Run to Netjets. Good luck.

 

[RCA]

Run to Netjets.

Maybe he does not reside in one of the 5 domiciles.

If someone wanted to "roll the bones"... improvements in basing options might be in the cards... before the CBA amenable date in 2010.

If not, I would not expect a new CBA to pass a vote after the amenable date without improvement.

This is for someone willing to roll the bones. Past performance is no guarantee of future returns. etc..
