Captain Happy, I like it. Unfortunately, I am not a Captain, nor am I happy. I am grumpy. And my hemorrhoids are all amuck.

I am not at Mesa, but I know of pilots going TO Mesa, and I know of pilots LEAVING Mesa. (What I don't hear much of is Mesa pilots leaving for XJet). Personally, I wouldn't worry that you'll be "stuck" or looked down upon for having them on your resume.

And now, as to your attempt at correcting my word usage...

in·ti·mate
ˈin(t)əˌmāt/
verb
gerund or present participle: intimating
imply or hint.
"he had already intimated that he might not be able to continue"
state or make known.

I are college, First Officer Dopey.

This is an amalgamation of a conversation I had with a fellow FO in DFW who said that she's leaving because she believes and has heard that Mesa pilots are "persona non grata", as well as an observation that was brought up during a conversation over lunch in DFW with a FA friend of mine that we both never hear about folks leaving this place for greener pastures.

I'm glad to hear folks are moving on, and that the industry doesn't look down on us. Thrilled even.

Settle down, Captain Happy.
