Not to mention 125 NYC openings for new hires on the 200/900. It will be a while before a new hire gets based anywhere else.

1700 total hrs to be a CA is pretty mind-blowing.

Sure, but you still have to have 1000 121 SIC. Which, considering you basically need 1000 to step foot in the 121 game at a minimum, the total time requirement isn't really even a big deal at this point, it's the company time that's the obstacle for people.

What will they, in the speculative world, do when that will no longer suffice the need for captains? Park planes, street captain hiring from an empty pool, or create a flow and monopolize the regional market?

To have 1000 hrs 121 by the time you have 1700 TT means either starting 121 ops at 700 TT or joining the airline at 1200 TT and the max 121 equivalent hours (135 or mil MEL PIC). Either way it's impressive.

That isn't how I understand it to work. I just read the contract again and it says nothing about your home address. Just that you have two flights. What is the contract section that says it has to be a certain airport?

Don't take crap from anyone. That doesn't mean be disrespectful, but every group has there small group of "lemons". If what is happening violates SOP (the books), HR policies (harassment), or common decency... Stop the show. Not to toot a horn, but I did it a few times in my long tenure as an FO. Person either stopped the BS immediately or quickly realized it would be stopped for them. Sure, avoid politics/money/religion/sex conversations if there is a non-conversational line, that's being an adult if the topic(s) arise, it's a different ballgame when belittled or treated without respect.

Every carrier will have the few folks who are a PITA, Endeavor is no different. Don't take the BS and be professional and it stops in its tracks. The few that are difficult are easily put in their place when they get some resistance to their BS. Never had a problem once saying, "stop your ----, (piece your 4-letter word carefully, but with intent) I'm not dealing with it". In many cases they actually became fun to fly with after the declarative. Probation or not, if someone is over the line, they are over the line. I guarantee they won't want to sit in the meeting where they "wrote you up" and it turns out they were the one being the bafoon.

Every now and then I think APC has nothing to offer, and then Higney goes and posts this gem. Very nice.
