one problem i see is the "pay your dues" mentality that permeates the industry.At what point is a guy done paying his dues: 1000 tt 2000 tt 3000tt. the operators understand this.to them it is take our ******************** and bs and keep your mouth shut if you want a job! many of you claiming to only take the 90k job have all been here so I dont see the point
 
During one of my furloughs, I applied to all the regionals to satisfy the state's requirement to be actively looking for work. An email from Skywest sticks out in my mind. The letter stated the starting pay was $19 hour AND I'd have to resign my seniority. I wrote back, I'd rather leave the industry and work were my experiences were paid accordingly. Thanks but no thanks. I needed a job. I have a family to feed. After 12 years of flying for various airlines I was unwilling to work for those wages. Guess what, a better paying flying job came along.

There is a point where you have to say, "screw this...............I'M WORTH MORE!!"

It's like the abused wife syndrome. They stay because, they need shelter, a place to live, maybe it will get better. That is why guys take crap jobs for crap wages. Maybe I can build time, maybe I'll get raise. Maybe I'll find a better job.

JUST SAY NO, there are better jobs out there. No need to sacrifice your dignity.
 
peter north did gay porn before becoming the king so there's hope Dornier...

Says the guy who is an expert in gay porn!

It's stupid comments like these that annoys me. You didn't know that you were applying for a 19k job? Give me a break. It's like those pompous major guys that are out of work, apply to a regional and then get insulted at what they're offered. I bet you felt bad A writing to them? Bet it got a good laugh at the recruitment office. It's very simple, DON'T APPLY. There are thousands waiting to take your spot.
 
Go figure you would wiki the GUY in porn...not the chick...figures.

Why would one wiki the girl? We all know their story. On the other hand it's pretty had to do what Peter North did. By the way this was a long time ago but I just wanted to know what his name meant.

By the way sorry for this thread went from regional pay to porn. carry on.

Greetings. He said he applied to satisfy the requirements for unemployment comp or did you miss that. I am sure he knew regionals poay crap wages. They all do.
 
What is the lowest salary you would except to be captain on a 50 seat jet. Now be honest... Assume you fly the 1000 hours per year.

You must be part of ALPA, looking to set the bar just a little bit lower.
