Most of what I am saying is in response to the Mesa crowd hoping for more aircraft while insulting other carriers' CBAs.
Well I didn't chose to go to the lowest paying regional, they chose me. Better regionals were not hiring. I needed a job and I took it. With over 9 years here at Mesa, believe me, I have seen the good, the bad and the ugly. Just as you have.
