Interviewed for a G-550 job

[K.V.]

Hey guys, maybe some of you don't follow the Frac board but this guy is taking you for a ride on his behalf. He's now pulling a joke on you pt91 guys.

Check this out:

I thought there was something familiar with this. This joker just hibernated until most had forgotten about him. NOT ME!!

I don't expect you to read the whole thread, so I will save you the trouble. Once he got called out he became VERY quiet.

If this joker was somewhat smart he would at least have got a new screen name and avatar. Then it could have worked.

Ok FZ, I'll admit it. I was bored so I read the entire thread you posted and still have no clue as to what your talking about. How is this guy taking us for a ride? What did he get called out on? Have you been getting into Grandpa's cough syrup again?

Apparently a few could not understand how on earth I would turn down the holy grail that is NetJets, I rolled the dice, went to the desert and hated it now I am back with a 550 offer, so in the end I am very glad I did not go to NetJets.

The question is: why did you leave that super duper job in the ME?

And no, I don't work at NJA.

 

[siucavflight]

Did you miss the part where I said that I hated living there, and flying to the places like Iran, and Lebanon was dangerous for an American.

The job was good, but it was not for me.

 

[flyzimex]

No, I sure missed that part.

Well, usually my memory doesn't fail me but this may be one of those rare occasions. I'l rest my case and offer my apologies if I was talking out of my butt.

Good luch with the G..

I personally dont think you should do it for less than 130K. In my opinion it doesnt matter if you are typed or not. They interviewed you because they like you and your experience. An airplane is an airplane. You gotta start somewhere. Dont sell yourself short. I work or a similar operation and schedule and our starting salary in our company is around the 130k.

I got the job, G3G4 the salary is in line with what you have said. Thanks for the input guys, looking very forward to this job!

Glad to hear you got 130K, or their abouts. Getting under 100K would just be about the most pathetic thing I've ever heard for a G550. Our company has a GV and getting under 130K would be roll-on-the-floor hilarious. I know a few people flying Part 135 on the GV and make more than 130K with full benefits.

Congrats.

 

[siucavflight]

Thank you, I am very excited. I was expecting anywhere from 70-100K, so more than that was a bonus.

nice, way to go....good luck

85k-95k would be a more realistic salary for a non-type rated, entry level FO, with no prior Gulfstream time. Bonuses and other perks could bring your total compensation into the low six figures but asking for 130K right out of the box would be a pretty bold move. Just my opinion.

Respecfully, what's that we say about being our own worst enemies? I guarandamntee you if you go to doctorsinfo.com or ambulancechasersinfo.com, you won't hear one tell another "no, you're asking too much. You should be happy making $40K less".

Good luck getting well north of $100K siuc.

Congrats on getting the job. Hope it works out for you better than the last one.

If he's smart, he won't answer that or any other question about his employer on a public message board... TC

P.S.--Congrats, SIU!
