They are going to have applications stacked to the ceiling now.
edit: "Unless he lives in PHX and forgot skywest has a base in PHX" this kid is an idiot, PHX is very senior, it'll be a while until he gets it. He'll probably get IAD. AND, skywest just announced a september and october CRJ class. So, he turned down an offer at a regional that is known for treating its employees close to the best in the industry to one that treats its employees near the worst? That sounds like it'll work out in the long run
Also, mainline owned aircraft ,the 30-e175's in this case, can be whipsawed AT WILL through loopholes in the contract
