Hey slice, not sure how long you worked at Mesa to know what sitting reserve biotch in base is like. I can tell you that commuting to sit reserve out of base for anybody blows much more than sitting it at home. A lot of people seem to know how bad it is at Mesa but have no real experience being there.
I am sure life at SKW is better but to each his own. As for Skywest becoming unionized the only really good thing to come from that will (may) be unity with the guys at ASA and maybe the whip sawing will stop or at least slow down and the people at ASA will have a chance of a life again. Good luck to them.
