I left Mesa a while ago. Do you see me in here bragging about my current equipment/employer/payrate/retirement match/profit sharing check or whatever constantly? No--because I don't need to compensate for anything in any department of my life, and because I have enough experience in this industry (and in a left seat) to know that bragging about your current equipment/payrate/employer/career progression/etc. etc. etc. is never, ever, ever wise.
Whoever you are, I'm glad you've moved on to a better job that provides you with what you want in life--congrats. I know the feeling 100%. Just know I'm doing you a favor by telling you this, especially from your position at the bottom of a seniority list at an ACMI carrier as we near the end of this economic cycle: maybe through experience--through a few economic cycles--you'll learn that being a professional in this industry involves a great deal of restraint and knowing when to stop talking.
Gloating about an ACMI job that many pilots would never take for any amount of money due to the time away from CONUS and risk of furloughs during big recessions, in a discussion thread regarding your former regional, makes you look like a sore loser--not a winner. You don't have to be that guy. Don't be.

What is with your obsession with this thread? You're a 74 FO for a contract ACMI op that pays you lots of money to spend lots of time on the road--cool story bro.I left Mesa a while ago.
