I wouldn't be suprised.. You are just happy to be flying a jet

 

[Diesel]

it's all about me me me me me me me me. I'm flying a jet who cares about the pay or work rules.

I think the pay you guys get is way on the low side. But I do think that asking for $150,000 is just unrealistic. The flying you do is no harder nor requires any more skill than most of the other guys on this board flying for a living. I think it is the arrogance that some of you(fracs) pilots are displaying that turns people off.

Hey AS214 we're asking for tooo much. RTS might not be able to buy that other horse or another house. Dear god call the union and have them revamp our pay request. We need to work for less not more. Please god don't ask for too much money.

So because we are asking for too much money we're turning people off? Man i wonder if united had that problem. ha haaaa

Oh you might want to tell G200 and GVflyer they are getting too much money.

LOL.. You know what the sad thing is..people in this industry have been beat down and conditioned for so long that they think 150K is good money.. sad... I don't know where that mindset came into play in this industry.. Why do some feel that making good money and enjoying your work at the same time are not possible?

Not just the money, Some of you guys have made it clear to everyone that you are a special breed, and noone else could do what you do. So that combined with that unrealistic money request, yes, would turn some people off of your quest. And noone ever said you should work for less.

You think 150k a year is an unrealistic request to be on the road for half the year. At Netjets on the 7/7 schedule you can work up to 14 hours per day. 14 times 7 =108 times 2=216 hours of work per month.. Oh and by the way that's conservative.. I consider all time away from home work!! I'm sorry if you feel that's unrealistic , but I have some self-worth Kool-Aid I'd like to sell you.

Ha you are funny, you think you guys are the only ones who spend time on the road. I am writing this from a hotel room where I have been on the road for 2 weeks and have 2 weeks left to go. boo-hoo

[El Chupacabra]

Do you come hear to make friends?

I am all broken up about turning people off. I think I'll ask for less money now....

I don't wanna hurt somebody's feelings.

Not saying the money wouldn't be earned, just saying it is never going to happen. If it does,more power to you for having the guts to out there and risk your job and fight for it.

That's a great attitude to have.. Being away from home for a month at a time.. If you are married how's that working out with the wife? Has the pool boy and gardner been stopping by a little more often than not..

 

[GVFlyer]

Oh you might want to tell G200 and GVflyer they are getting too much money.

Yeah, right. I'd be receptive to that. I want a bigger raise this year. As long as the company is doing well, I should be doing equally as well.

[El Chupacabra]

Aren't you afraid you might hurt somebody's feelings and turn people off?

 

[avbug]

I do not fly fractional and trying to keep it that way, Im just an old Cub Driver, might go into crop dusting, a proffesion without upset pilots.

Ag pilots are as upset as any, they just don't whine about it as much.

You'll find it's a whole lot easier to get hired into an airline or a fractional operation, or a corporate position, than to get hired as an ag pilot.

If santulli can't afford to pay us what we want then just shut it down. If an owner can't afford to have a well paid professional crew up front then he shouldn't be in this buisness.

Just want to make sure I heard that right...

If santulli can't afford to pay us what we want then just shut it down.

One more time...

If santulli can't afford to pay us what we want then just shut it down.

That's what I thought you said. If you dont what you want, however ridiculous or unrealistic it may be, then you're not only going to take your ball and bat and go home, but bust the show for everybody else, put hundreds of others out of work, and ruin it for everybody. Yep. That's what I thought you said, and you did.

Smart boy. Arrogant, but you're a smart one.

How about if Santulli can't afford to pay you what you want, then go elsewhere and let the company run without you? But you didn't say that, did you?
