It’s the entitlement mentality of the regional new hires coming in here over the last 2 years who are causing discord and pulling down morale. We’re gonna walk out of this with a contract making everyone else cry. Likely by summers end. Negotiations are going very well at the moment. The future is incredible bright at ATI. The industry is crazy right now, but we are still top dog on the block with Amazon. We surely don’t need guy in our ranks painting a picture that’s not accurate. Sounds like you should go find another carrier dude!
There are much greater opportunities for a pilot than ATI...the whole place is one big revolving door. Retirement alone is worth millions over the course of a career at almost all other carriers...do your homework.

MM - you make a good point but don't assume everyone is in your situation. I only have a handful of years left and just want max paycheck. ATI has appeal but direct-entry Captain with Contour is getting my attention...

Usually heard in the west as "I'm from California and you need to do things the way we do."
Everybody loves to hear, "I'm from the regionals and this is how we did it..."
What did you do in high school?
