Let me add no one from the company was in the room to witness my signature, it was just fellow classmates. Any legal advice, or experiences?
Thanks. Its a lot of money for a 1st year regional FO, if you know what I mean.
I know a prior employee left and got a $7500 shot on his credit.
Less than a month ago I was working for a company that I absolutely wanted to leave. Pay wasn't the greatest and neither were the working conditions. I was flying into venezuela on a daily basis where the controllers speak terrible english at best.... so you could say my life was in danger every day.... but I stuck it out until the company decided to furlough all of us and I can say without a doubt that I have been better for it. I know how you feel.... it sucks.... but it will make getting to a regional or any other better job that much sweeter.... you are just paying your dues and I respect that. I think there are waaaaaaaayyyyyy too many guys who just pay for the CRJ training course without putting in the hard work first.
Keep your head up and keep plugging along.... freight dogs like us always get to where they want to be in life (or so I hope
)
