Well, only a Go Jet pilot would spend this much time defending them. I am going to go argue with a brick wall. It will be more constructive.
Now you're making a straw man argument. No, I don't fly for GJ. I just happen to care about the integrity of important definitions....especially on labor issues.
I am so beyond angry right now. Honestly I think it's time to organize a strike. Screw the whole government permission thing, just do it. Everybody could potentially get fired, I know. Seriously though, this is just so infuriating. If the TSA pilot group were to man up and do this, it could show the rest of the airline community just how a pilot group can and should act together when everything is standing in their way.
I'm very tempted to begin setting up a behind-the-scenes strike committee. I'm so ****ed right now.
Full Disclosure: Yes I interviewed at GJ after my TSA furlough but they didn't seem to think I was qualified...thank god.

We'll see what happens tomorrow but this is going to be crazy. I'm too lazy to look at the contract but I'm pretty sure a management can't just screw TSA like this and transfer all the flying to GJ. If they actually can, then this will probably be an all time low in the regional industry. So much for 25 years of excellence.

1-Why did you even apply?
2-Would you have taken the job if offered one?
Purpleanga, TSA management really does not give two RatsA$$es about our contract or what is legal or illegal, immoral, unethical, the only thing they care about is making as much money as possible, and if they destroy the lives of nearly all their employees in the process they just consider it a bonus.
1-Why did you even apply?
2-Would you have taken the job if offered one?
1-Because I didn't realize until now just how messed up this whole situation is and I made a bad decision.
2-Yes, I'm sure I would have because of what I said in #1. I still will too...as long as I'm stapled with the rest of the Waterskiers above the HoJetters.
GoJet getting CRJ-200s is pure SPECULATION. Just because some guy says he got it from a "highly knowledgeable source" doesn't mean jack. Until I see it in writing or the company announces their plan to really screw those of us at Trans States, I won't believe what some anonymous guy on APC says.
On a side note, I've called up some friends of mine down at Embry Riddle and asked them to do some research on the "GoJet is recruiting" for the fabled -200s they are going to recieve. When someone gets some real information, post it. Otherwise, shut your dang mouths. You are rocking a boat that doesn't need to be rocked. We have got enough things to worry about without you yahoos arguing about who qualifies as a scab and the like.
FACTS people, FACTS. That's all I want to hear out of anyone's mouth.
Not really, UAL only sees TSH performance (both TSA and GJ combined) I know this for a fact. It is the same with awarding flying...based on TSH performance.
I trust my source at UALHQ. The UAX division sees GoJet and TSA as two seperate companies. They are two completly seperate contracts.
