I didn't say that. I never said you were stupid or lazy. You just added that to make me out to be the arrogant mainline snob who had his job handed to him and now looks down on all the poor RJ pukes..sorry, that's not what I said or what I think.
I always love RJ guys who b!tch about how bad they have it and then point the finger at mainline guys instead of doing something about it.
What I said was that Blue Baron was hired prior to 9/11, has 7000 TPIC, 13000 Total, and was very competitive in 07-08 for DL and SWA, who's been hiring in small numbers for a decade. If he hates DL and 9E, he can go somewhere else at any time.
Same for 9E FO's..I read on APC that SKW was offering jobs to candidates in the parking lot who had ATP mins and we're CRJ qualified. None of you have to stay somewhere that you don't want to be..especially now.
I get it. You hate 9E, you hate DL, you hate the SSP, DL's not hiring you so they can keep you in indentured servitude in the RJ. The only thing you have to look forward to is giving $h!t to a EtD new hire cause you paid your dues and he got preferential treatment before ever turning a wheel at 9E.
You got screwed..so screw the SSP.
Sounds like good reasons to go somewhere else.
