That's nice that new-hires get to donate 6 weeks' of their lives to Skybus with no pay.

But hey, I guess that $30K per HOUR pay would make up for that pretty quickly.
 
To help keep cost down, here is a couple of cost cutting measures.


No overnights right now. DH to or from.

No paid parking at the airport.

No SIDA badges.

No respect.
 
They also need a station manager for IAD, WA as in Washington state, according to their web page. Didnt know Dulles had upped and moved 3000 miles to Washington state.

Time to hire another web editor...
