Actually, it'll be kind of hard to narrow it down with just those clues. My Mesa nightmare will be over soon, but not soon enough. I'm *this* close to just cutting my losses and starting over at another regional....no I won't tell you which two I'm thinking about going to. But one is wholly owned and receiving new aircraft and the other is non wholly owned but seems stable enough.
If some of you think Mesa is just another regional with just your average share of problems...well....I can't help you. I wish it was as simple as showing up, doing my job, going home. Unfortunately the misery this place creates follows you 24/7..from abusive crew tracking, to the low (non existent) pay, run down third world motels we stay at, I could go on.
LOL. Really,Man? B**** about what you can't control. This attitude is what's wrong with the entire industry. Pilots that do a lot of complaining but are not courageous enough to check their own attitudes at the door and try to make the places they work better. It could be as simple as changing your attitude/perspective. Lord knows Mesa definitely could be better in a lot of ways, but there are a lot of awesome people working there. Maybe the solution is in how you govern yourself, not how Mesa (or any company for that matter) governs itself. If you think the grass is greener then go for it. You may end up poisoning your new place of employment as well, while telling yourself that it is EVERYONE ELSE that's ******** up. Look in the mirror. Start there first!
