If it helps put it in perspective, nearly each and every single one of them is ex-Mesa. The Mesa Mafia as we call it, aren’t skilled enough nor do they possess the aptitude to get hired anywhere else so they stay here to terrorize us with the only thing they know and that’s the Mesa ‘**** on you’ philosophy.

They’ll say yes to ANYTHING that upper management wants just to protect their jobs, even if it screws us which it does 100% of the time. These guys could care less about us, our families, our pay or QOL.

The few people that say they love it here are the guys who only ever fly min guarantee and never tread into the murky waters of ABG. If you don’t want stress, frustration, and bitterness DONT COME HERE! If you don’t want your wife to hate you all the time because you’re constantly ****ed off about how you’re treated at work or you didn’t get the days off you needed due to ‘high demand, must work’ then DONT COME HERE!

If you’ve worked for ANY other airline in the past besides Mesa then you’ve had an exemplary experience compared to what we have. Please, please, please do yourselves a favor and don’t entertain this place as a career choice. You are a professional and there’s plenty of places that will treat you as such, be patient and go there.

You're trying to force everyone to see Allegiant through your prism. My point of view is that I work 10 days per month.

While I am becoming disappointed with the direction of the company towards the pilot group lately I have to say this statement is pretty extreme. Day-to-day it is still a easy job with great folks. I am sick and tired of filling out at least one grievance every month, and I'm starting to look at other options, but this statement is not an accurate reflection of how things are here. It's still immeasurably better than either of the regional carriers I worked for.

Your troll skills are weak. You need to take lessons from "Ray."

Beat me to it. Rory definitely needs a Ray of Sunshine. Rory's lame trolling skills don't hold a candle to that tool Mr Sunshine.

I fly with him a lot. He's not a tool, just a guy that loves his job and is happy with his situation. He came from corporate aviation so he ate his fair share of shiite to get here.

Impersonating me isn’t cool. Maybe I ****ed you off because I talk a lot, or because of my corny jokes, or because I ask a lot of questions, or maybe you have so little esteem this is how you make yourself feel better. Don’t care.

Management called me to see if they could help me have a better time working here because they thought you were me. He wasn’t even that upset at the things I supposedly said. That probably makes you happy that happened but it’s not like I was in trouble. I love working here and if you think it’s so bad say it with your own voice or at least under some nameless identifier. The company guy who called me even gave me props for saying all this bad stuff and having the guts to identify myself until I told him it wasn’t me. Ironic, the compliment was for you but your actions meant it didn’t apply.

Wow. I'm all for hijinks on the interwebs, but if someone is truly impersonating you, thats not cool.

Good to hear management actually reads this stuff though.

This is ridiculous... I love my job (not so much the filing of grievances) and I regularly tread in the waters of premium pay... We have a pretty solid pilot group, I enjoy flying almost every time I come to work and although there is a bit of friction due to having to point out issues with pay and having to file grievances over contract wording, you have to separate that stuff from your daily QOL.

Still the best job I have had...

The problem is we will probably never know if this is actually the opinion of “CaptainRory” or just some BS he or she wants people to be fooled into attributing to me. Doesn’t really matter though, does it? It’s all crazy talk and gross exaggeration at best anyway.
