From: CRJ FO
Soooo. Can we get back to talking about the problems at AWAC? Or shall we continue with the PSA folks telling us how great their non-rev privileges are? Too bad the same can't be said about their airline in general and QOL.
Just saw a very cocky guy that I knew from GA who was hired at PSA recently. I guess he is actually an "American Airlines" pilot, they only put him at PSA since he did not have any prior 121 experience. He told me that he should have a class date at American in about 2-3 years after 1000-1500hrs 121 time. That's what he told me, so it must be true. Mannn I got so jealous. I made the wrong choice of airline. Filling out my app as we speak
So has anyone seen these mystery LCA's flying as FO's???

And every day that goes by with the company not bringing a better deal to the table means we lose more FO's and the whole operation continues to deteriorate.
The only scenario that makes sense is the one I have seen mentioned here a couple times: The company is planning to shrink considerably. That is the only way I could understand the company reaction to all of this, which has been to do nothing to entice people to come here. In the meantime, beg FO's to pick up open time, junior man people at 1am and again at 5am, and then have LCA's flying in the right seat. The dam is bursting and they are patching it with some Flex Seal crap they bought online.

That Attendance and Reliability email I received last week really really ****ed me off. In the last 12 months I was sick for 3 trips. A 4 day, a 3 day and a 1 day. 8 days in 12 months. Go and F off. Seriously. It seriously makes me want to call out this next trip in spite of this BS. However, I have a great crew and an awesome 30hr overnight so... but come on. I could see you sending this if I had banged out 5-6+ times. ***.
It is NOT my problem at all that you have no FOs here and can't hire anyone. It's absolutely amazing to me everytime I talk to MP and ask about *** is going on and why we aren't offering bonuses etc. he always says "we're not to that point yet". Are you joking!? Seriously? We just ran a class of TWO. The times now bud. Let's get real.
Go and look at Crew Availability and see how enormous the red bar is for FOs. So far they are barely covering it and 2 days this coming week they are negative. That is fit right now. You know there are going to be people sick etc. What a joke.
