No offense taken, you have your opinion of me, and that's just fine.

But thank you for reinforcing my point. You see, there exist a few people who tell people that Mesa (or other contract airlines in other threads, it's not limited to Mesa pilots nor to ex-haters of any particular company) is a place to stay away from. But how can they lay out a blanket statement like that, and expect to be taken with any amount of worth? Unless a poster lays out many details of his/her life, no one is likely to be able to accurately answer the question "Is Mesa right for me?" And even if it's right today, it may not be right for someone next year.

I am in no way bashing Mesa, hope it didn't come across that way. My point was that if Mesa was as terrible as some try to make it sound (usually because they are bitter about something that happened to them in the past), then why would so many pilots becoming to Mesa from other companies? I see the question asked almost weekly on this thread, and people like to imply that it's newbies who don't know any better or do their due diligence. But is it, really?

I think not.

Mesa can be a blessing for one person, and a mistake for another, all in the same day, the same as any other contract airline. A LOT of what it ends up being is in the attitude of the employee.
