Prior121 has worked here and Republic--he seems to feel pretty strongly that Mesa treats us better at the moment.

I don't see any new hires hitting the line here who weren't fully aware of our contract, working conditions, and payscale when they signed up.

You act like a child who didn't get what they wanted. I'm sorry we have shiny new toys to upgrade onto at Mesa--if it makes you feel any better a lot of the people going through upgrade here have been through their fair share of hardship in this industry--whether that was going through bankruptcy at Mesa, or in the case of myself and other former Pinnacle/Colgan people, having fought for years for a new contract, only to have it shoved down our throats by a bankruptcy court (with downgrades, base closures, and furlough notices ensuing soon thereafter).

I'm starting to realize that the only people bashing Mesa are: 1) People who washed out at Mesa or 2) People who have only worked for one regional in their lifetime, who are mad because Mesa is doing well and their similarly-crappy regional is not



I "know" what dozens of first officers have told me that left Mesa due to the horrible conditions and treatment they received there.
