Why not? Your growth was attributed to our holding company. I think you should share the burden. Can't have it both ways. You grew at our expense, now share the burden and take DOH.
If you didn't like the way your seniority was moving along you should have left. I don't care how many years you have invested. You always had the chance to leave. You chose to stay and it's killing you that you made the wrong move and you expect other people to pay for your career decisions that didn't work out the way you planned.
Left where? NO one was hiring in the recession. And how will "other people" pay for my career decisions? I'm just saying DOH, and you STILL HAVE NOT GIVEN A REASON NOT TO DO DOH! I do not get how DOH hurts Colgan "career expectations"? Ha, if I can even use "Colgan" and "career expectation" in the same sentence....
And save your breath. We know that our seniority progression was because of the Q400 that were purchased off the backs of the hardworking Pinnacle pilots (and of course you hard work scrubbing toilets before you were a pilot at Pinnacle). And I won't ever forget it.
Damn right! Cause of us, your sorry airline was able to grow. I don't know anyone who went to Colgan when they could have gone to other bigger, better regionals. The only Colganites I know that went there were rejects (no offense, the Marvin types). People who couldn't make the cut anywhere but luckily got in and passed at Colgan.
And toilet cleaning for me? Is that the best you can do as an insult? Try again, Marvin!
