Oh, and by the way, checking out flightinfo every day and posting thousands of times will make you a complete waste of space. Oops, already got that accomplished. (No offense to some of the diehards here that post relivent and non-biased information)
smokey999 said:Here's the deal. I was charged with DUI. Went to court for the license hearing to fight the automatic license revocation. I won and they recinded the revocation, or overturned it, and refunded the fines I had to pay to get it back. I was offered a dry careless.(careless without any notation of alcohol) My DMV report just says "careless driving". I just had an interview at a regional. (I know this is the majors category, but I thought some of the people browsing here might have a good answer too.) Was asked over the phone, any alcohol driving offenses? I answered no. Asked any violations? I said I have a careless driving. On the application I checked that my drivers license has never been suspended or revoked. If by some reason the NDR screwed up and didn't remove the revocation, do you think this would come across as me lying? Also, even though the careless driving stemmed from a DUI, it is not an "alcohol offense". Do you think they would see it the same way. I was never asked about it in the interview, surprisingly.

I typically don't post on this sight, but I felt this deserved a response. I understand everyone is looking out for themselves, so is life, but there are lots of more educated ways to do it. When I came to TSA we were growing like gang busters and I was excited that I found a descent place to fly. I too was a freight dog and did my homework before applying to the regionals. TSA management finally pulled the last straw in the pilots patience and we've said enough is enough. I consider myself middle of the road, neither a big union or management buff. With a little bit of homework, it's not hard for people to figure out what the tsa pilot group is trying to do. Our goal would be easily feasible (a slightly better letter of agreement) if pilots would stick together. Why support an airline that is kicking a pilot group in the teeth when you don't have to. There are other "better" options, Chaut., Exp. Jet etc. Despite what you would like to think, you are stepping on toes. For example, my (and hundreds of other tsa fo's) upgrade. I was suppose to be captain in just a couple months a couple months ago. Now since you and others are supporting g jet, management has no need to talk to us anymore. It looks like the right seat for me for a few more years. Oh, and about the pay. I make more than you doing the same job in a smaller airplane. Have fun with that and try letting your conscience be your guide.
