I saw it for MANY years, and I respectfully disagree with your respectful disagreement. When I was hired at XJT, it was one of the “places to be”. It was XJT, Air Wisconsin, and Comair. Today, the two that survived are dumpster fires. The places that SUCKED were Pinnacle and PSA. Pinnacle is now Endeavor and pays the best, and everyone I know that went to PSA has been an American pilot for years now. There’s a cycle, and I WOULD say that it’s XJT’s turn to spring back and be a great place.......except it seems that the exploitation went too deep. You have to feed the cow in order to milk it. The NUMEROUS inept management teams over the years did nothing but milk, and never fed. I hope it works out for y’all, but I used to think we were “better than the others”, and that it would pay off for us. Guess what.......you aren’t, and it hasn’t. Not trying to sound like a dick, I’m trying to say that there’s a perception when you’re inside the trap, that the trap is going to get better.....because you deserve it. It doesn’t work that way.
