Hmmmmm how about the few positives here?

I got my own room during training! Wait wait the company actually paid for hotel and paid new hires during training with 24/7 per diem.

PSA was never late on my paychecks.

$350 uniform allowance annually after first year, 1.5x pay for working on day off.

Good amounts of decent legs 1.5 hour plus flights although we have our share of 6 legs a day.

Good maintenance in general, which is very important.

Good crew at least 97% of the pilots with a few oddballs.

Less people moving laterally to another regional or straight out quitting than most other regionals. Which means many other regionals are even worse. I don't know anyone that's happy at a regional. We just have to hope to get out as soon as we can.

Most that are already at PSA or soon to be future new hires will have an opportunity to goto majors or fractional if they choose to in the next few years.

Our contract is not the worse but it's in the lower, not so good category. At least for the reserves that is. Senior guys here are pretty content from what I see. Most of us won't be here long enough to see the new contract.

A lot faster to upgrade than to goto a regional with 3000 pilots.
