Unfortunately that's more an industry's fault than Silver but they're not saints in the matter. If you didn't hear what happened to me a yr ago with the ole Knappsack pm me. You'll understand why I loathe this company for continuing to employ him. What's sad is there was many more who got it worse than me and I can only imagine what it was like having to go home and have that conversation with their family.
Yes I am we'll aware of the story. Remember that one of the captains that went to bat for you to Phil is GNV based. Yes I am aware. As I said before you were poorly treated. I am aware of that. I never asked you to lie to people. I never once said this place is a gem. Never said anyone should expect greatness from this place. All I ever said, was that we, current employees, should be giving newbies the scoop on this place. During this process, I got a pm from someone that actually posted a while back asking about new employment here. She asked why you were so angry. I told her the whole story, probably in bad detail, of how a contract can be used as toilet paper. You have not shared your story here so I will not mention details publicly but I got it pretty clearly. We talked about out stations, pay, and your best friend in FLL and how he earned his rep. I promise you I didn't sugar coat $h!t. It is upsetting that the industry uses our career goals against us to get what they want. We are truly at a turning point in this industry and the next couple years should be entertaining for sure.
I just want to clarify. You are right. This airline needs help. I don't dispute that. Never have. Just let us deal with our own $h!t storm.
