Leave Netjets...

[BentOver]

Trying to decide if the initial cut in pay, commuting, etc... is worth the strain on my family.

Still can't believe I'm even considering returning to the airlines after 15 years here.

Thought I was done.

Thanks for the replies.

No offense, but if your comparing previous regional 121 life to a possible Legacy 121 life... Stop comparing

That is the problem with a lot of pilots at NJA.. Regional life left a bad taste in their mouth. But they are insane if they think Legacy life will mirror their former regional life.

You will know at the end of your career if you made the right decision, wither the decision is to leave or stay. I look at my highly qualified squadron mates and the moves they made. Like leaving DAL fro Pam Am in 1968, FedEx for Braniff I in 1978 , it folded in 1982. We had another guy bail from GM Corp in 1979 for Braniff; he would have been at GM through the glory years. How about all the guys who bailed from SWA, UPS and FedEx for the major jobs at DAL, AAL, UAL etc in 2000. You just never know.

Point? Please tell us you have one with your silly stories.

No silly stories here, just a long record of pilots chasing the green grass on the other side of the fence only to find it is green because there is a lot of cow droppings on the other side of the fence. A lot of planned fantastic career moves, well turn out to be well, not so fantastic, did you get the point this time?

There never is a point. Just to say how bad unions are because they cause the demise of everything.

It's funny to hear the stories of guys who left or were furloughed from the majors in 2008~ say that Netjets was awesome and a place to stay for the remainder of career. Now that the majors are turning around it's the opposite.

It was once ...

Netjets is not the same company that I used to love...

Or that every decision is a crapshoot based on his/her long record of what his couple of friends did. If everyone listened to him, no one would leave Mesa for spirit. Lololol....

Leaving a good job with lots of seniority can have a down side to it. But what you are saying is no one should listen to someone saying their might be a downside. Kinda like the Captain of the Titanic ignoring calls about icebergs.
