I think a contributing factor is the lack of effectiveness of Pinnacle's HR department. I had walked in, faxed, emailed and called in my resume a few months ago. I didn't hear anything back from them. Happened to several other qualified people that I know. If they treated most other potential employees like that, I am not surprised in the least about the mess they are in right now. Best of luck to the Pinnacle pilots....you guys will need it
