Some of the whiners over on the Mesa thread (yes, I said whiners, particularly some you quoted) are not worth the bandwidth they are allocated for posting. The folks I do know at Mesa are awesome guys and gals, and while none of them are happy with the pay or benefits at Mesa (who in their right mind would be?), they are all really awesome people, and I never see them on APC complaining.

You cannot judge an entire airline by the immature postings of a few.
