Some airlines like the knee jerk reaction of destroying some ones career, at Mesa, you take responsibility for your mistakes or lack of judgement(reference the pilots using projected time instead of actual time on the upgrade), are sincere about it, blame no one else for it, and you'll probably still have a job at the end of the day. I know this must infuriate the flying nazi, elitist type A, superiority complexed, main line crj driving wholly owned pilots out there, but too bad!
