What will you say to the junior pilots in five years when you are in another airline ?
Well, you make it hard not to be a whiner!
First of all, there's nowhere else I want to work! However, I am actively looking. Obviously not 121.
I signed up for the higher paying job, of course! But I was about a year too late.
I expected reserve, but not for 17 months (with no end in sight). I expected a West Coast base 50% bigger, as the
company projected. I expected a difference in pay, but not over 70k a year vs. a person a couple of years senior to me, in the same seat. I
really don't like working 18 days a month vs. the 11 the previous poster bragged about.
I didn't expect the deals that are made outside of seniority! Values?
I hope the pilots five years in the future don't have these concerns! If things are balanced in the future, this website will just wither away.
