I am very happy here at pinnacle. Others would say different. Are there things that suck,,, you better believe it, are there things that i really enjoy? I will let you know after i go back to work after almost 2 weeks off. I also have friends at skywest who love it there, and a few who don't. So bashing colgan isn't correct. You may not have liked it there but just because you left doesn't make it a low class operation. Acting like a low class operation is what brings us all down.
I know I sound like if I could put COlgan out of business I would, I come off like that its just that for 6 months I was on reserve in ALB and I hardly flew, and when I did it was a lot of 91 BS flying, and they always screwed with my schedule, and they changed times, shorted me pay, again this was MY EXPERIENCE, and I understand people have different experiences, my views are, based on my experiences only, sorry if I come off with such an attitude, i just had it rough over at ChUCKS place
P.S. In case you guys are wondering 6 months was a long time to be on reserve at COLGAN and becuase its out station basing you never really flew all that much, here at XJT last month on reserve I flew 96 hrs and have a per diem check of $650.00 comin my way (NON_TAX TOO
