Smarta$$, the FIRST thing you need to understand is that pilot feedback has absolutley NOTHING to do with company decisions about pay, sched, bennies, or anything... NOTHING.
"Thanks for your input". And that's it. Lipservice, just to placate you.
(We need an icon for wacking off. Completely appropriate in this context).
Except, as in 2008 when 10% of the pilots quit and others weren't even showing up for classes or interviews.
The company heard that, when it cost them money. That's ALL that they hear and SHOULD hear. It's a business. They make MORE money by paying you LESS than your peers. So far, free pizza and heart-felt handshakes have worked pretty well. Their job is to compensate you as little as possible and they do it well. Their bonuses reflect that.
I've been here 10+ years. When you've been here a little longer, you'll know. Maybe it's better than your regional, probably OK as a stepping stone. It's not a career airline.
Sorry to pop your balloon. I gave up the left seat in a 320 at a major to come here in '02. There was no risk to my seat or equipment. JB was the shining city on the hill.
I was a believer.

You are such an incredible tool. You don't see us seeking out posts about your regional airline and making comments. Unreal. How small is your hotdog?
This whole picking a good company to make a career is a long game, but you are spiking the ball and claiming victory 10 minutes into the 1st quarter. Yet you are still a regional airline pilot!!! We could have a union in 6 months, and if we are as profitable as some of these guys say we are, we could also have a very good contract.
How F-ing small does you hotdog have to be to feel you need to tear down the jobs and careers of others? A job that I would take 10 times over again, and is far better than your subcantractor regional airline job.
UAL will not call you. And if they do, you will NEVER pass the interview. But maybe there is still hope for that "shining city on a hill" Allegiant airlines to FINALLY call you...
Why don't you worry about your own sh!tte job and stop acting like a guy who is 4 feet tall.
