Allow me to answer that, No, i was not given a straight answer and based on where you picked up the conversation, you chose not to follow it from my original unbiased simple question. Instead, I was answered with additional questions and assumptions like, "why don't i just call them" and "you're not going to get hired at a job fair anyway" Neither of which was addressed in my question. Now, if I seem a little irritated by the fact that such a simple question would rattle so many feelings and send all here into a frenzy of drama , then that sounds like something that needs addressed addressed on individual levels instead of taking what was a very simple direct, non attacking question and turning it into a mini soap opera. As far as sharing a cockpit, anyone who's feelings are teetering on the edge based on a simple Job fair question isn't someone I want to be sharing the skies with either. And if Compass wants to condemn me from employment because I asked a simple unassuming question then I have to believe a valuable lesson has been learned by all in this charade.. Including me.

Ok, I probably should have left this topic where it was. I couldn't, however, leave that part without a comment. You were not attacked because you asked questions. Please read your responses, especially the one in which you sarcastically refer to somebody who's trying to answer your question as "sunshine" - (regardless how good that person's answer was). That one comment alone sets a tone to your approach and attitude. Your attitude that emanates from your comments is the reason people "jumped" at you. As I said earlier, it's an anonymous forum and you can call people whatever you want. All I wanted to say is that it may not be the smartest thing to do providing you are trying to get hired here. Anyway, good luck and take it easy!

First, let's stop the ****ing contest about Brenan or Nettie knowing who I am. Not once do have I been concerned about anyone knowing who I am. Quite frankly, having spoken to both of them on more than one occasion would have me believe that they have better things to do than base their decisions wholly on a web forum as to who they bring in or don't bring in for an interview. If this is actually the case, than a good ole' boys club is not where i want to work anyway. What are we, What is this? The High School playground? If a person can't come into your little clubhouse and ask a simple question without being dumped on by holier than though remarks and assumptions such as the record shows in past requests from others to this thread, then perhaps you all need to take a look inside yourselves also. I will admit that having to bury two friends in the last two days has me a little on edge about these responses but, asking a simple question regarding a job fair should never have turned into this crap. So let's close this discussion now and reflect a little about how we all need to do a little maturing. Thank you.

In case you ever write an email to HR or the hiring pilots you might want to spell "Brenan's" name right. Or get his name correct to begin with.
I don't think Compass is a good ol boys club at all. You've miscategorized this group of pilots. There are a few that were annoyed with your response but we are hardly a good ol boys club.
Perhaps you started off on the wrong foot here...lets talk less about maturing ourselves and more about humbling ourselves. That might be the issue here.

I'm really curious-- you've been asking questions about Compass for the better part of 2 years. I would think anyone trying that long to get hired would already be a captain by now. I mean, you've asked probably 4-6 times about job fairs on the west coast, how easy it is to commute from SAN, if they'll accept your help time, etc etc.

I'm not trying to be rude or anything, I'm just honestly curious. What's up?

Actually Cory, it's irreverent. Just to help you sleep better, I'm not trying to get hired by Compass. Not anymore. Besides, If you were in fact wholeheartedly concerned about addressing any of what you are asking, you would know that a public forum is no place to discuss it.. Forums like this should be used only for questions like, "is Compass planning any Job fairs on the West coast?" You know, the question that started this circus in the first place.
