At least you have a pilot uniform, you can walk through the terminal
Holding your head high. Just don't tell anyone you sh!t in a box, like a f:cking animal. It is just me or does the crew in the Envoy ad seem so much more inviting than the Emirates version? |

No lavs :mad:. Only a blue juice porta john that is about 8 inches off the ground. You have to pull it out from the bulkhead. When I was there I didn't hear of anybody using it. Most guys just use a bottle they bring along.

Yeah, back in the day I worked for an outfit that had a similar setup. It's not the best situation but could always be worse. It gets really bad if you're doing legs that are 4 hours or more. Haven't heard much about this outfit though.. Are they hiring Captains? What's first year pay, schedule.? Are they in CASS? If so, do they have a commuter clause in their contract?

Some Pilots amaze me...
Multiple sources could post that..... a company is the worst outfit in the world. Citing examples of garbage pay, no benefits, no schedule and on call 24/7/365, broken and illegal airplanes, non existent training, .50 cent per diem, floating domicile, and instead of a lavatory onboard you crap and **** in a bucket...... Yet there is always someone who responds right below the above post........ What are their mins. !? Can I go to the right seat of the Jet, will they hire me if I bend over and take it up the arse!? :eek: < FACEPALM !! >. :D |

Jim Good to see a positive light about this company in your post. Many companies have positives, but people always seem to disclose more negative. |

Jim Edit* I'd like to add that I've worked at a few small places before my current employer and the 2 that you could easily, without appointment, walk in and settle an issue with the OWNER were the best jobs I ever had. Takes a lot of respect on both sides of the desk to make that happen |
