Could it be the return of Week under an assumed name?

First off, reposting for all eternity: http://www.captiongenerator.com/1030...mpass-All-Call


Second off, FAQ:

What base can I expect out of training?

This is a moving target, PHX, LAX, or SEA are all achievable out of training or close as of this writing*. PHX is certainly a lot smaller but an easy commute to LAX if you have to, no one base seems much more senior than any of the others. LAX is probably the most 'junior' but it seems that most have their base of choice out of training or within a month.

What is reserve time?

... also a moving target. Current hires can expect 2-3 months of reserve, but be prepared to sit up to 6 months just realistically if hiring were to slow/pause, or if the floor for FO's goes back to 75 and there's less lines, depending on your base, we don't wanna hear your whining, many people here spent years on reserve at other carriers. But it seems reasonable to expect at least 6 months, with the possibility of less or more, that's regional life!

What is upgrade time?
Seems to hold pretty steady at about ~2 to 2.25 years** on average, might be less for some with the big gap in hiring, but those captains have already been hired. Some CA already on property are going to have waited 2.5 years. Bottom line, this place is always hemorrhaging pilots to the majors, and we don't have lifers. Everybody just wants out.

Why does everybody want out?
Because the company is owned by Hulas and has zero ability to manage, long term plan, pairings are pretty garbage, etc. But the crews are great and everybody has a great time.

I heard Endeavor/Envoy/Republic/Skywest is buying you/taking your planes/stapling you to the bottom/taking your momma out to dinner.
Is that a question? Go back to the skywest thread, word302.
No, but seriously, nobody knows what happens after 2020, it is a big question mark just like it was for Air Whisky. With big risk, comes big reward. Management doesn't have to tell us anything, and they haven't said much about longterm plans other than "Delta and American love us and we are like their favorite best performers so why would they fire us omggg!??"

What is a snack basket auditor?
The snack basket auditor is responsible for performing an occasional leg-by-leg audit of the contents of the snack basket. It is one of the most important job descriptions at Compass.
Let us not forget this.. Maybe the best caption generated parody ever for compass.. Not to take anything away from the new one.. It's just good to rewatch this after everything that's happened since
