Don't come crying to us when you're on the street because your airplanes that were paid for on the backs of other pilots are suddenly parked. I saw a bunch of Q's this week and could't help but think about how those airplanes start losing money the minute that dull blade starts turning. If you're dreams come true and new Q's somehow appear on property they will be staffed by 9E and XJ FO's. If you already upgraded because you hit the lottery three times in three years have fun sitting reserve in Newark for eternity. That should be a great quality of life. You guys may have STOLEN our upgrades, but I'm enjoying my 20 days off a month at home and picking my trips. Don't get too comfy just yet, the Q4 has yet to be released and they delayed the shareholders' meeting indefinitely. Post-merger means jack to any of us. We busted our asses and put up with shady management while you guys grew and grew, but still made no money. We won't get over it, we may shut up for a while because its getting old, but it still burns, and will always burn. Its easy for the Colgan pilots to want to sing around a camp fire. Hell, if I won the lottery three times in three years I'd be all leprechauns and rainbows just like you. Advice: Stop telling us to get over it and move on because we're post merger now. I'm sick of hearing that. Tell me how you would feel if you walked into your crew room you've been visiting the last 5 years to only see it filled with new captains from another airline. I've sacrificed plenty and I have earned that slot only to have it ripped away. $^&* off with that get over it talk.
