That, in my mind, is one of the biggest problems with this industry. As much as I'd love to spend some quality time here at ASA, they are not the only game in town, they are not the only one to offer me a job, they are not the great and powerful Oz, and they need me more than I need them. ASA just happens to fit my needs more than the rest do at the moment. When the pay they offer you is already low, and then they decide to tell you "it was a mistake," and reduce that pay by $300/month, I can't imagine why anyone else would not understand my being mad.
Whow there big fella....I think you have jumped to conclusions. I suffered through low wages for a year, and I would love to make more as a second year F/O. I have no love for the industry that seeks to hire qualified professionals and pay them minimal wages.....but, you and I both knew coming into a regional airline that you would be paid less than a fry cook at McDonald's so spare me your sermon on what you deserve as an AIRLINE pilot. I support your ambition to seek what is right. I'm just giving you some advise. Pull your silver spoon from your mouth. Just remember....there are some that had to PAY for there training AFTER they were hired at a regional. Good luck there Junior.
