New Info on FlexJet

[ksu_aviator]

The proof is that it is a legally binding contract and they are well with in their rights to pursue compensation for breaking the contract. Whether they do or don't is up to you. Outstanding crew members that leave on good terms have a better chance of negotiating a new agreement than a disgruntled employee.

BTW...if you go to a company knowing you will break the contract, then you have some moral issues to work out.

KSU huh? You need to read for comprehension.

Leave within two years and they"ll go after it.

The question is not, can they, but do they?

...and I take it you have a degree in jurisprudence. Labor laws vary in the different states. A legally binding contract cannot be construed by a "implied promise" to "do something" that is in contradistinction to the state law of the employees residence.

But hey, thanks for playing. You didn't provide any objective input, but you were able to promote your "beliefs". What do we have for him Johnny?

 

[mannyaplus11]

I left on good terms, they did not come after me.

 

[RLAblows]

What is the typical schedule?
Starting pay?

Does anyone have the answer to this question?

 

[rumrnr78]

First month off IOE working 6 on 4 off. Still getting the base with a little Per Diem thrown in. After deductions and Uncie Sam's reach around about 1120 every 2 weeks. I use higher deductions due to our tax situation so it might be on the high side.
So far no complaints, great people to work with and I even enjoy talking to scheduling (ok, I might be pushing that one).

Cheers- Rum

I am in the 60.... I got 14 day lines right out of IOE, everthing from 4 day trips to 6 day trips. I usually manage to get a stretch of 6 or 7 days off each month. Overall I'd say the schedules are pretty good. I don't always get the day off I ask for but I get the length of trip I ask for.

Pay wise, if I work the absolute minimum (a 14 day line) I get right around $1000 every two weeks after all the deductions, plus per diem.

Well "do they" is the wrong question and "can they" is the right question. If you learned to "read for comprehension" you would see that I answer the "do they" question while providing some perspective as to when they "do."

By the way, there is no "implied promise." They have a written, signed and notarized contract. No court has ever held a training contract to be invalid due to Constitutional, federal, state or local laws. Lastly, I have consulted (in the past) with a lawyer about training contracts and she gave me all of the information I have given you.

Now, who is promoting beliefs here? I gave absolute facts, if you think they are just beliefs and thus are fallable, why don't you post some information to disprove what I have stated?

Here is your goal:

1. Prove that a training contract at Flex Jet is not signed and notaraized;

2. Prove that a court has held that a training contract similar to Flex Jet's was held to be unConstitutional or in violation of federal, state, or local laws;

3. Prove tht Flex Jet never attempts to collect on training contracts.

Your move.

PS....If anyone is planning on signing a contract with the intent of violating that contracting...do some soul searching or go sell used cars.

 

[doylehargraves]

The training contract at flexjet is NOT notarized.

P.S. I'm sorry you attended KSU.

Well "do they" is the wrong question and "can they" is the right question. (The question is not what you want it to be, but what was asked) If you learned to "read for comprehension" you would see that I answer the "do they" questio
n while providing some perspective as to when they "do."

Nah, don't have time to do all your work. CA DOL

AND the question is - "do they?".

It has so much that is useful I can't even start.

 

[ksu_aviator]

I knew you couldn't.

AND the appropriate question is "can they?"

 

[doh]

I knew you couldn't.

AND the appropriate question is "can they?"

No the question the original poster asked is "do they" and to get the right answer you have to find some one who left and ask them if they did! The right moral question may be "can they" but the question was definately "do they"! I just finished my first trip incedently, and I really enjoyed it! I have no intention of finding out if they do! So don't ask me!:beer:

So you couldn't figure out the "linky" thing?

 

[FraxJockey]

So you couldn't figure out the "linky" thing?

What does California Law have to do with a company in TEXAS...an at will state?

 

[Skytaxi]

Yes they do. Why would they have a contract if they did not chase after the folks that leave before the two years is up?

 

[LAZYB]

Pull your head out! ONT ain't in Canada!

What the #%*@ does an (sic) "at will state" have to do with a training contract?

"To those who understand, no explanation is necessary;
to those who don't, none is possible."

OK Dilbert/KSU, seems you couldn't manipulate the "linky" Forget the training contract its illegal...

Forget the training contract its illegal. I went to court in Dallas and won. Flexjet had no leg so stand on and they knew it. If you want details private me. The bottom line is whatever they make you sign its been tossed out in court in Dallas county.

Hell I even won damages and my lawyer's fees

It ain't what you want it to be. It is what it is.

The bottom line is this, and it's been previously stated. If you go there with the intentions of getting a type and leaving then you should be made to pay it back. You are taken a job that someone else may need more than you. Where are your morals?

 

[Club ORD FO]

That I would agree with...but I know some people go to Flex and just don't like it. Should they be forced to wait out the contract of just get the hell out and make room for somebody who does want the job? I say let 'em leave.

 

[haulingthemail]

I do agree with that. It should be a case by case basis. But reading some of these post, sounds like they are just try to get something and give nothing in return.
