Yes there are issues at Atlas but when EACH and EVERY post is Atlas this and Atlas that, you sound like a broken record. We heard you the first multitude of times saying exactly the same thing. The only thing Complaining will get you is criticism for complaining and the message gets lost. Why don't you have a nice warm glass of shut the hell up (happy gilmore reference).

Quite honestly, I am surprised that anyone who purportedly has called in so many times to complain about "blatant and systemic contract violations" hasn't been fired already for harassment.

This thread is called "Atlas hiring", not "Atlas whining". So, let the guys who want to come to Atlas ask questions about coming here....even at their own "peril" so to speak. I am sure after 1500+ pages they get the message about the systemic and blatant contract violations already.

blinding wit.

I just call it like I see it. We ALL get the message that YOU and globemaster and 8 have all been saying. You have beaten the proverbial dead horse to a pulp. Let's move on. Now, If there are candidates out there that have a real question, I am sure that the posters that have shied away from coming here because of all of the whining can actually enjoy coming back here to answer questions without the EXAGGermeter being on full blast.

You made lots of pilot friends with that one Dave. Following the contract is harassing the company?!? That's why people are leaving, moral sucks, and you and management are losing.

I would say the same thing in the airplane if people complained as much as they do here. But the reality is THEY DON'T. This is a web board and stories are wildly exaggerated.

I am not a management puke either.....Do you people actually read what I post or do you all suffer from internet hero syndrome just waiting on the opportunity to jump on someone who isn't in lock step with your opinions. I come on here and try to temper the argument with centered examples, tell people to quite whining and you accuse me of being in bed with management? Listen to yourself. I am on your side man!!! .....just not exaggeratedly so.

Honest questions to anybody interested in applying to or working for Atlas: The Company is suing the group you intend to join; do you think joining a group that will be dogged in the court system (lawsuit/arbitrations/whatever else), potentially for years, is a good career move even if you are coming from a worse place? Do you think pursuing to work for a Company that is willing to sue the source of 90+% of their revenue generation is a good idea? Really, Im curious how the outsiders view these recent events. One things for sure, it'll be one insane ride!

That's telling if a 747 Captain would leave to take a job at a regional.

Good post......finally. It is thought out and not flooded with rhetoric. It is something that Atlas applicants should and must consider.
