Regardless of how and why you ended up at VX, it matters no more. This discussion is about windfall and VXers got a big one.
this might be the most upsetting post I've ever read on here. If its so easy to get on everywhere, why are you at Alaska? I could name 6 other airlines that most people would put ahead of Alaska as a potential employer. You dont know why I came to VX, nor the other 700 or so pilots here. So to make a claim that we are all undesireables, I really have only one reply
Go F U C K yourself.
