I commute and I go back to reserve next month and unless I change bases, that's how it's going to be for a long time to come. Your not the only one.
I hope it gets better for you. For all of us. But that doesn't change the fact that our schedules out of IAD got all balled up recently. If you're unhappy about yours, start a thread about Mesaba schedules and bellyache to your hearts content. I'll listen. I'll contribute if I have something constructive to say but I'm not going to make any assumptions on your seniority, or your cognitive abilities to comprehend the night and day difference between where someone sits this August versus last August.
My whole intent was to point out that this thread is about former Colgan guys at a base formerly known as a Colgan base, and two non-Colgan pilots came in assuming an awful lot about someone they haven't met and know nothing about and that I did not say that you don't understand THE situation, but that you most certainly don't understand MY situation. At least not prior to my other response. Maybe it helped you understand my point of view, maybe not. If you or the other fellow have something constructive or supportive to say, I'm all ears.
On an unrelated note, Saabs, did you just reference a certain YouTube video? I see what you did there...
Oh, and I guess since we're starting to let the thread creep, CJC IAD SEPT schedules are crap! Back to your regularly scheduled thread.
