No, I wish I was done! Oral is next week, followed by sim. I'll say this, everyone seems genuinely interested in our success and are doing their best to get us the information. I just feel the entire training department is overwhelmed with all of the new hires and upgrades and transitions, which is not helping any of us. As for the gouge, I will say the gouges are actually extremely helpful and is a big part of what is keeping us going through class!

Is it possible? A happy Allegiant pilot?
Been with the company just over 2 years, going to make around 80k this year, live 20 minutes from the airport, work am shift ( show 0600 usually done around 1400), in my bed every night, just voted in a union, and flying newer airbus right now. That is how I am willing to put up with it. Things will get even better once we hash things out with the company on soft pay, 401k, and other things.... . Enjoy your EWR commute.

And also something (factual) to note: that post was prior to all the TDY's, etc.
Nice try, though..

If you still want to ignore those who are in the know because you think you will strike gold here, be my guest. You too will learn.

When was that post written?? Oh, right when the union was voted in? As we all have been saying for pages upon pages upon pages, this *used* to be a great place to work....2 years ago, when that post was written.

I am not "trying" anything. I personally know several Allegiant FO's and Captains that are happy with their employment and all for different reasons. Do they want to make more money? Yes, everyone in the world does. Do they wish many things were different? Yes. But they are happy to be employed and flying large jets. For all those griping on the boards you are no less a sucker than any new hire because you are still here.

Send me a PM with the list of several happy pilots and I will validate you to everyone on this thread. If not then you're just a pot stirrer.
