These other guy will probably tell you to hold out for a real airline like United and Delta...
But then again there are people at Continental, United, Delta, Jet Blue that are unhappy so you don't want to go to any of those either... right? What I'm trying to say is that there are good and bad points for working at any company. NO company is perfect for anyone. You have to just look at what a company has to offer and decide if its right for you. Thats what I did with Lakes and it worked. There are people at Lakes (and many other regionals) that don't like it there and there are people who do. Anytime anyone makes a blanket statement about a place, you know they are full of.... well, you know. (I liked it there but I'm not saying it is the right place for everyone). I encourage you to talk with people about their EXPERIENCES (not opinions) and then decide for yourself...
Also according to some people here, the people that like working at Lakes are not real. They are a figment of your imagination...
