I know. I've flown them both. There are actually four flyable, two airworthy. There's no making a living in one any more, though.

Collect yourself, calm down, and pass the re-ride. Your career is not screwed, even the legacies cannot be very picky these days.

With that said, it is a known thing in this day and age that some bottom feeder 121 operators are suspected of busting folks for the sole purpose of delaying or preventing their departure for greener pastures... ask around carefully, if you're in one of those shops GTFO asap. Just go to a decent regional before you have to do recurrent, if they can bust you twice in one year they know they have you locked in for many years, maybe for life. Not saying that's what's going on, but you should make sure that's not what you're dealing with.

Check your PRIA/PRD and training records carefully too.

Hypothetical PRD question: if a new-hire bails during initial company indoc, before starting the actual training, would that be considered an incompleted training that would be reportable to PRD?

Yes. Indoc is part of initial. When youre' in indoc, you've begun training, and any airman that begins training is reportable to the pilot records database.

The moment you walk in the classroom on day 1 of your indoc is when you begin training for that airline.
