I honestly don’t care what the opinion is about the company I care about what the opinion is on the airframes. PS I did try reading a few posts but none of the ones I found had what I was looking for. If you don’t like what I asked, move on you don’t have to respond.
Amen! Honestly, I don't understand why people on APF are so...
well you said it... miserable.
Surfpilot there are people on here who have no life other than flying and APF. They take all their spare time on here making comments that makes them feel self important and get each other all riled up when really...no one gives a damn.
Fellow aviators...Why can't you just answer the question knowledgeably and professionally? If you don't know the answer and you are that bored and lonely find another question you CAN answer knowledgeably and move on people come on. Grow up. Course I don't know why I bothered typing this. It will only ignite more BS for the lonely bored oh-so-great folks out there. A lot of us don't want to take the time to read all your BS to find an answer so we end up starting a new post JUST to not be depressed getting stuck reading all your crap for hours trying to find an answer.
Yes we know we're underpaid, company doesn't give a damn about us, we're overworked blah blah. If you don't like it...guess what? No one is forcing you (except yourself) to put the uniform on and do it again and again the next day.
Heck yeah applicants will keep coming. After all, seniority is everything! Why wait for contracts after spending tens of thousands to finally get "the hours"?
I'm sorry prospective airline pilots are not working at McDonald's just to appease you and keep classes empty for your $1 raise. In the end, companies squeeze regionals guys for all were worth til we move on to the majors. It is what it is. And hey, in a perfect world...the pencil pushers might see that if they do give us the $$ we deserve, we might actually stay. But when that day comes.....well let's just say, it ain't. Sorry. So all you unhappies clogging up the forum with your misery and unnecessary comments...why don't one of you geniuses make a post just for you. Title it...
"lonely, bored and unhappy? Post here"
