The class started grilling him, one guy 4 yr FO; no chance for upgrade for about 2 to 3 more yrs, told him that he cant support his family as things are. VP replied, if you are not happy here and cant support your family you should quit. Nice. So, if you want to be based in that hell whole known as JFK and fly as an FO for 5-6 yrs then be told to quit b/c the buisness model is keep a jr. group, then welcome to CMR. I fly with guys all the time that **** and moan, I tell them to go to CHAt. at least they will upgrade and get PIC. So, unless you are from NYC then I would never think about coming here. It could be a great place to work, but there must be some reason why 35 guys a month most jr to me are leaving...Good luck, if you come here hopefully you can stay positive.
I believe its called "jumping at the first thing that comes along". I know buffalopilot for one is grasping at straws, having been to 6 interviews without any luck before getting on at Comair. But anyway, speculation is worthless. I hope for the best for you guys at Comair. You guys tried to raise the bar and will always have my respect.
