I guess I'm just concerned that my seniority range in DFW had been treading water for 4 months now; moving up seniorty-wise and staying the same distance from holding a line.
Makes me feel like there's no hope, especially with supposedly many people coming in underneath me with overflowing new-hire classes yet no actual sign of moving up the rung, all for the worst pay in the business (even playing field when I started last year).
Feel like it's worth it to move on, yet also feel it's worth it to stick around and not make lateral moves; to get my 1000 and either upgrade or move right seat to bigger right seat..
Hold tight, the winter months are always lean for flying. I would expect a bit more flying once May, and especially June get here. Even if you're still on reserve in the summer, there is a bit more open time and sick calls, which leads to reserves being used.
Part of the problem is at Mesa we tend to expect everything quick. If you go to a nicer carrier, then you'll go through this all again for a longer time...but with higher pay. The choice is yours.
