USA JET Has Mass Layoff

[Porky]

Due to the increasing saleries of upper management they are forced to layoff many so that they can afford there lifestyle.

Oh I almost forgot, they have parked the entire Falcon Fleet.

Details to follow after a company meeting at 1:30 PM

I bet you all that the VP's still keep their company cars.

Hey guys, I'm sorry to hear about all this. I'm not a pilot or FA and I got the ax too. (I'm sure you can guess who I am). You guys are all in my thoughts.

no comment, I didn't anything this one until this morning when Bill C left.

 

[Capn Sac]

Sorry to hear about the lay offs. Cape Air is hiring for 2 classes in August and Sepember. We are actually growing and getting more 402's, PM me if interested.

I just heard about this and man I feel sorry for you guys! Another year and another round of furloughs from USA JET. Hopefully it will be short lived guys, keep your head up. I wish we hadn't hired our class already so we could get some of your guys on board. Good Luck

I wish we hadn't hired our class already

What's wrong with guys you already hired?

 

[SWA/FO]

How many furloughed? Looks like Bill C from the training dept.?

Hey guys, for what its worth, SWA will be hiring 550 + this year. I made the jump almost 7 years ago and have not looked back. Rough couple of weeks for the USA Jet gang. Hang in there guys!!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Time for me to fire up the ol' resume.


This morning I couldn't get to my company email. Then a call from the Chief and DO. Separation notice is in the mail. YAY!!

Could not of come at a better time when job competition is super fierce out there with 10000 pilots on the street.

Sorry to hear about this. Welcome to professional aviation.

Edit: BTW Pilotyip, this is why you shouldn't go on a public website advertising to all the youngsters on FI of the "hiring boom" in 2007. You just might look like a douch.e one year later...
