Company planned a flight on a plane with an Mel radar that explicitly stated it’s a no go with storms and the enroute weather had storms. Constantly forgets to add alternates when required. Required maintenance inspections forgotten. Just a few items I’ve had in just a month
sure you can drop your whole schedule, work whenever you want and call out whenever you want. But while you’re working it’s not great.
Haha..sounds like somebody cant get the "call" fast enough.
Sorry to tell you but crap happens at all airlines. Sure, we have a larger amount of "trash" on board, but I do disagree with the rest of your experiences.
I have the suspicion you are showing up to work everyday with a "Im better than this" attitude and you're over exaggerating. I hope you get your call and experience "better quality of the job."
To the newhires: Spirit is a job, not an identity. Show up, dont be a dick, dont take the job personal, get a few laughs in with the guy sitting next to you, and dont let every little bump set you off, punch in/out, go home and enjoy the off time. Guys I see that are the most miserable are the ones who "need" this job to be something it isnt. Plane hot, start the APU. MX issue, write it up and let them fix it. Hotel shuttle late, take an Uber black. Wash, rinse, and repeat. Its not hard
