For someone who isn't here yet, others are hiring, others who don't have it as bad. Why the hello oils you come here!?
Oh, as of 3 days ago, our ASAP program is terminated....protection from the FAA, gone. Yeah, this place is jus peachy...come on over. If you do, I don't want to hear one, not ONE complaint for as long as you are here...if you know better, and chose to come here anyway, you are a fool and lose the right to *****.
So you're saying RAH is soooooo bad and other places are waaaay better and you write that? You could start over at Air Wisconsin and second year pay will be what you're making now and you'll make more with all their duty and trip rigs. So do that.. And Wal-Mart and McDonald's and Waffle House are always hiring too.
Chances are RAH is not going to furlough and never going to strike and with new flying upgrade times are bound to drop.. And you should be upgrading pretty soon if you're a late 07 hire. If you are bypassing upgrade because you don't want to fly the 145 or the Q400 then you shouldn't be complaining..Seems to be the case since you seem pretty embellished about letting everyone know you fly the E170. It has engines under the wings! ..I've heard already.
You can blame the termination of the ASAP program on the International Brotherhood of Thugs. Company had nothing to do with that.
