What up at Republic/Frontier???

[SWA/FO]

LOL, not bad at all. I'm just calling foul on the perception that stapling a pilot group on the bottom of someone else's list is a win/win deal. I actually think SWA is a very good airline job. I just don't think they are the only very good airline job. I also have grown weary of the constant putdowns of everything non SWA on here by some of the SWA folks. You guys really are not the center of the airline universe, no one is.

true dat! I guess, we will group you in with General/OY^ then...

It starts by having a servants heart and entering the esteemed institution at the bottom rung just like every other employee has for over 40 years.

Then don't buy another airline. GET IT?

Get a brain to match that heart.

you could just simplify this balderdash by cutting and pasting this from now on:

hired not acquired

how about "we were bought, we didn't have to buy our jobs"

All the SWA guys I know should have a sticker "my daddy got me this job"

 

[SWA/FO]

How about "We were bought by the good guys" or "We were bought and our union F'ed it up!"

That's fine, you can lump me in within whoever you want. I don't judge anyone by a few internet posts. Personally I would bet I could sit down with you, the General, OYS and any other SWA person on here and have a beer at the Monarch and we would have a fine time (using your 1 2 3 rule of course!)
I've got friends with all kinds of different opinions from all kinds of airlines. I'm not threatened by differences of opinion at all. We are all a lot more alike than we are different, no matter what airline we fly for or were we worked prior.

You are the same idiot as these guys in bold so what does it matter?

The "good guys"....do you whack off to a mirror? How about a sticker "What goes up, must come down"

 

[GuppyWN]

Is that wrong?

Gup

Com'on drink with the General or OY^?

No, I don't. Is that your idea of a fun date? You must be a tranny, are you?

No your not, I work for Hawaiian.
Kind of another example of that SWA narcissism, you guys seem to think you are going to go around kicking everyone's ass. It's a bit unseemly and one way our professional bar has been lowered. We all compete, I'm not that naive, but for some reason some of the SWA guys act like High School kids rather than grown professionals. A lot of us have grown out of that.
Taxing like Sebastian Vettel, cutting people off, boasting "we are going to kick your ass" etc is a lowering of the professional bar, not raising it. It exists at all airlines, but it sure seems to be more prevalent at SWA.

This one sounds like hating Dan. And I know you don't work at frontier - and it makes sense that a Hawaiian pilot would have empathy for F9 - one niche carrier emplyee to another. No disrespect intended.

But I have a lot of respect for your posts. If I was long winded and more emotional than usual it's bc frontier FOs were sold out. And I have friends who could use the money now and are stressed from the gun being at their head for the better part of 4 years. I'm sorry, I know people can find a niche carrier that can fit much better than any large major- but we all do this for money.

And it's really ********************ty of senior captains who make a LOT more than their FO's to give up security and money so easily.

That's my opinion and that of a LOT of frontier FOs.

I am hopeful dan- but you do notice what's going on in DEN? We are growing steadily. As it stands, the growth in Denver has spurred hiring- all at the bottom. In this case I just see a different ending and hate the stress my friends are dealing with. I'd much rather be showing them tricks of the bid

Yep....coming to a senority list near you! I have never heard a pilot consider all 7000 of his work mates the "good guys". The ego is awesome!

Really.... we do have ours too you know, but they are OUR A******S. So yes, I do look at my Pilot co-workers as the good guys. There are worst Compaines out there to be bought by, ask any TWA dude.

I think you are drastically missing the difference between "companies" and "employees". In our world they are totally different. Go back to greasing the sides of your head so it will fit through the doorway.

I didn't, do you GET IT?

You must be the one who sued to have this disclaimer put on all mirrors:
“Objects in mirror actually larger than they appear"

This thread has completely unraveled. Can we just let it die now?

Hourly pay is nice, at F9 we can LEVERAGE work rules to BILL hours not flown! If you have a new and or young contract (or a regional) the difference is HUGE! I flew 810 last year and BILLED nearly 1050 without trying that hard. That is the difference......plus the swap-drop flexibility makes QOL number one. I haven't flown a Holiday is 4 years out of 7.
