Move over ASA...

[bri5150]

Eh, don't take it personally. Our own guys don't even say 'Hi' to each other. Remember, the regional airline industry is like high school. Everyone thinks they're cooler than everyone else.

The perfect analogy. Good work.

ASA pilots are a bunch of rude prima donna's. I am so sick of that attitude. I guess it is true....Jake Pavelka is your poster child. What a joke and laughing stock. You are NOT God's gift to Delta Airlines. You are just another regional flying a bunch of crappy and uncomfortable CRJ200 pos. You guys need to learn some serious manners. When a fellow pilot says "hello" you are supposed to say Hi back....got it!!!! Time for some manners guys. This is definately a problem over there. It's the rule not the exception.

Just from seeing how you handled this situation I would say it is safe to assume that you are the problem. ASA guys are great for the most part.

Anyone who tells me that I am supposed to do something followed by "got it" - well I would say it's time for for some manners and an attitude adjustment.

The above statement is a rule - not the exception.

funny, ASA has always been great with me. The only guys that are consistently rude are Republic. Whats up with that anyway?

I'm an ASA pilot who finds the 'primadonna' label more or less hilarious.

When I smile and wave or say Hi....don't roll your eyes and look the other way. This happens almost all of the time. Just speaking from experience.

Seriously get over yourself. Maybe you are smiling in a way that comes over as if you're looking for a date. Worry about other stuff.

:laugh: There's an app for that too, this guy would do well in ATL. Our FAs are on the prowl in the airport, always ready and willing to perform.

You have a dude in a swimsuit as your avatar and you're playing this card?

Ive only been ATL based for about 5 months but I have had nothing but good experiences with every Acey pilot ive come across...theyve gone out of theyre way 2 times to get me on a jumpseat and I will continue to do the same...most of the time we just share the common miserable stories of our employers...mine is worse!! NO mine is worse...blah blah blah...

ps..my feelings are rarely hurt if I dont make direct eye contact with another dude in an airport just because hes wearing a different color uniform...

Let me get this out of the way---"HI". There it is.

Now, let me explain.

I'm a zombie. I'm tired as hell and searching for anything resembling happiness. The problem is that the terminal of passengers normally doesn't inspire positivity.

My solution? I numb my senses and put one foot in front of the other. I must derive happiness from an imaginary squirrel with an over-sized sombrero shaking the maracas inside of my head.

I don't walk unresponsively with a thousand-yard-stare because I'm stuck up. I'm not better than you. I'm completely preoccupied with the hilarity of a Mexican squirrel.

Nothing personal.

But that's just me. As for everyone else...I can't speak for them.

So, I'm sorry. "Hi".

I gave up on this and just put my earbuds in.

Being at ATL might suck, but at least the music is great!

Welcome. It'll be fun reading threads that aren't automatically ASA treads.
