I still want to sit in on Clarence's inevitable interview with [the next Gulfstream Airlines].

SLC guys give dirty looks to non-SLC based SKYW guys. That domicile may as well be a different company from the rest of Skywest

I've never run across anybody here who cares about Compass. Most I fly with have the attitude of "whatever, we're just a contractor". If they do get upset, who cares. Clearly they're an idiot.

I know a lot of you guys probably hate guys like me for that...sorry. I've also spent enough time on the road to know that it truly does suck sometimes. However, I always tend to look at the bright side. I consider some of the flying I've done to be REAL flying, but I seldom make it through a Cuban 8 without spilling my coffee and tracer rounds can be quite irritating. I know the airlines have a whole new ball of suck that I haven't experienced yet and I appreciate CCB shedding light on these areas.
I knew exactly what I was getting into, as did pretty much the 19 others in my new hire class a few years ago. I had saved up money, and had no debt. Others in my class did the same, or had other income streams.
I'm sure you didn't mean it, but your post makes you sound like a tool. I hope you lose the "Tracer Rounds" attitude, as most here don't want to hear about it.

They rely on newhires not understanding the rulebook, read it, know it, live it.
CS will do WHATEVER it takes to fill the seats.
