Threads like this one is usually such worthless drivel, mental masturbation if you will. Different strokes for different folks. Some people like daytime flying, some like to have pax on board, etc. Me, personally, I like the pay and most importantly, JOB SECURITY. I know things can change to any company, jada jada jada. But, this right now is the most secure that one can get. I don't care what is behind the door - pax or rubber dog$hit. 3 furloughs in about 5 years is enough for me. Give me stability.

By the way, I worked 75 hrs in my 10 months as an FE. Yeah, night flying is really killing me. :rolleyes: I sleep more through my reserve periods than I do working. :D

Really, though, if you are happy, that is all that matters.
 
Different strokes for different folks seems to be the theme here.

If you don't like flying nights, then get a job flying afternoon traffic watch. I don't think any airline out there is void of night schedules. If you want stable employment, a good paycheck and good QOL, let those be the parameters for any company you are contemplating working for.

The question was which would you choose if given the choice, AirTran or UPS. As I said, Job security, pay, pension, b-fund vs. nothing. The choice is simple. Seems like the folks defending AirTran have a lot of pent up hostility and anger. It's not my fault you work there.

Any place beats wherever it is you're flying a CRJ 700 at.
 
The typical response when you are turned down for a job, "I never really wanted to work there anyway".
