They don't get our emails indicating we are just fine, bruised but fine. I'm sure I'll get the hate speech: No degree, washout, or some other negative response that is not true because I chose Mesa. I looked at XJT and Endeavor both were higher paying jobs at the time, reserve was in my future at both companies till I died. I chose Mesa because I got a line immediately and the culture was awesome. XJT commute and Jumpseat on my flights all the time. They are always welcome here, I like them. We shoot the sheeeet and talk about how bad our companies are. If Mesa goes under and they are around I would hope they would have me. I know most of pilot group would welcome them as well.
I think we both will be here. I know we both will be different after this clears up.
i don’t know when you looked at xjt that was going to have you on eternal reserve? Must have been a long time ago. But you are right that guys talk junk about Mesa all day long, but have no problem jump seating on them when they need to get somewhere. Doesn’t make any sense.
