Thank you in advance!
I wish I could think of a good reason why a former C17 driver should come make Spirit his home, but sadly, I can't.
The reality is that there is no good reason why a guy with military experience should come here in today's environment. The Legacies are gobbling up mil guys left and right; why not just use your mil advantage and go to an airline that may or may not respect you more but 100% will compensate you substantially better and upgrade you much much faster.
I like Spirit, I really do. But I'm already a Captain living in base. My apps are still out, but if the Legacies never call I won't lose too much sleep at this point. And this company has done a complete 180° from three years ago.
You? You'll be stuck in the right seat for quite some time. This mismanagement team continues to prove that they're reactionary, not visionary.
You're current in an RJ. I'm assuming you have left the Air Force honorably.
My friend, you're wasting your time (and losing money. Lots and lots of money.) by coming here.
