Mesa or SkyWest????

[GogglesPisano]

Beware,
Be careful about taking the Mesa job and leaving when SKYW calls. The pilot records act will show you working at Mesa and leaving shortly after hire to SKYW. This will be in your packet forever, it could cause problems later with future employers, ie. job hopping, unable to complete trng, or any other possible excuse one might attach to short employment spans. Plus it's just not right to behave like an irresponsable slacker. If I was to interview you with such an event in your record, we would spend a large amount of time trying to find out what the real reason was for the quick jump from company to company. Would you want to hire a pilot that had no problem taking thousands of dollars worth of training, knowing that they intended to leave before you could recoup that investment? "Good moral character"
is not just a requirement for the ATP, it's necessary when you hand a pair of pilots an aircraft worth millions of dollars and my family in the back.

That's a pile of horse hockey. There are plenty of guys who got hired by one major, only to jump ship 6 months later when their "dream job" major called during the boom years. It didn't seem to matter to the majors then.

Without a contract, you owe your employer nothing (they certainly seem to think they owe you nothing -- especially JO.)

So you're saying you wouldn't want your family in the back of an airplane because one of the guys up front left the bottom-barrel regional when he got an offer from one of the better regionals?

Try again.

Got the call from SKYW the day the planes went through the towers in NYC. I waited a little over a year to go to class. Let me tell you it was worth every second that I waited for a class date. It was the only place I sent a resume, didn't want to work for anyone else. Learned my lesson flying for s#*t hole operators for way to long. A bad day here is is still 1000 times better than my best day at my previous jobs.
