Im sorry it "could" be possible...anything goes in this industry...just let me know your thoughts...thank you in advance...I think I threw up in my mouth when he said i could be a Mesa pilot

OMG I think I just puked a little in my mouth... WWAAAYYY off base I promise.
maybeesdid, Uhhh... I don't know what planet your from but QOL, work rules, compensation these are very important things to pilots and if you even only visit the boards once in a blue moon I still think there is a thread about how Mesa is horrible.
Example (a.)
http://www.airlinepilotforums.com/sh...highlight=mesa
"Mass Pilot Exodus, Low Morale Cause Concern for Mesa Pilot Leadership"
Example (b)
http://www.airlinepilotforums.com/sh...highlight=mesa
Ellen congratulating Mesa pilots for there move. (if you read the boards you know Ellen)
Example (c)
http://www.airlinepilotforums.com/sh...highlight=mesa
Its a locked thread but... "Mesa pilot steals an Ipod" Just the kind of people I want to work for
Example (d)
http://airlinepilotcentral.com/airli...-lcc/mesa.html
Stock not over $6 a share (I am no genius but thats low), the increase in pay from first and second year is ONE DOLLAR!!!
Hope I this helps out. I do like Mesa Pilots, I just don't like Mesa. As for ASA being bought by Mesa if that was the case I wold tie my own noose.
