Hey CHQ Pilots

[mwmav8r01]

He is just a person that has nothing better to do than bash CHQ. A lot (def not all) of COEXers think they are gods gift to aviation. The whole industry owes them something.

Axel, your right - I am young and I have a Commercial. I wouldn't say however that I have a complete lack of understanding of what is happing around me. I know that my job is on the chopping block and the reason it is on the chopping block is because someone out there will do it for less.

I turned down jobs at 2 places before I came to my current airline as I wasn't willing to do this for any less pay and any less of a contract than I do now. I don't feel that this gives me a right to judge other but I think that pretty much everyone should agree to work for no less than an acceptable compensation and work rules package... This isn't happening, so I'm frustrated, my job is on the line and I don't want to start over agian building seniority somewhere else. Sorry if I ruffled any feathers.



I'm not a BRAND NEW F/O, and I don't know what makes you think that - because I've only been on the board for a few months??? I've been working where I'm at for over a year and I'm not saying that makes me know everything or anything at all and I don't try to preach to CFIs (I have helped a few of the get jobs) but it pains me to watch them say "I'll go to MESA for the upgrade time" or "I don't care what I make if I fly a jet." As I stated above I abstained from this before I was hired and hope most people would as well. I'm not saying that people working for some "quick upgrade" outfits are bad - it's just hurts everyone thats wokring for a good contract and good pay when CPA time comes around.



I've actually never flown a 152, and when I was hired over a year ago I had the same qualifications that guys who were getting hired by CHQ had. I just never sent anything to them because I wanted to work for a better contract and I didn't like the bases. I didn't really care if I flew a 170 or not. I'm sure now I could go there and fly whatever it is newhires are getting into and I guess I might if I loose my job. Then I could upgrade in two years and be as cool as you.



Thanks, I obviously didn't know that... Appreciate the heads up.

ERJFO,

This is the second thread you've hijacked (with the same rhetoric too) so I'll bite.

Enjoy your many "millions" you will make over the CHQ FO's. If you "retire" after 2 years, to which you're comparing, you will have made a whopping 4,200 dollars more than CHQ FO's. WOW, that's unbelievable! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!

And to think that a Parks College graduate from July '05 said "No, I'm not going to work for CHQ (Face it you were turned down) warms my heart. I feel for the Captains who have to fly with you. Even though you said you have been employed over a year, but your replies to other on this mesage borad indicate you've been on line for maybe 3-4 months. :rolleyes

I'll enjoy my hard days off (no junior manning). BTW, we pay our FO's the same rate on the 90 seater as you at XJET pay your FO's. Guess what retard, we don't have 90 seaters. You lose buttmunch!

P.S. I hope you're not less than 690 from the bottom of XJET's seniority list. It would be a real shame to see such an experienced aviator such as yourself telling everybody that you are so superior to everybody else, on the street...You're management's wet dream....RETARD. Get off Daddy's computer and go to bed already. I'm sure Brokeback Mountain is on pay per view, so watch that instead.

...I wouldn't say however that I have a complete lack of understanding of what is happing around me...

The irony of this statement defies the ability of human language to describe.

Hey since we have a CHQ pilots thread going how do you FOs live with yourselves flying 90 seat airplanes at 50 seat rates???

How do you live with yourself dropping us "school" on a contract that was in place prior to CoEx hiring you?

I'm going to give you a break since you're new, and obviously know nothing about RAH.
Pay attention, VERY CAREFULLY.

Do you have a note pad? Good. Now write this down:

UAL J4J and US J4J.

I can't wait for you to get a little more senior and fly a trip with an old school captain. You'll shut up.... I just wish I could sit in the jumpseat for the whole pairing....uke:
