Hope it's not off of what we've got for the 900 in December... looks like we've got 70ish lines for next month.

The entitlement mentality is absolutely toxic, and you can be sure that professional interviewers can spot it a nautical mile away.

If you want a job at a different company, apply and get hired. No one owes you.

Wrong. Entitlement my arse! Some of us have been here long enough to call BS. How about raising the bar for regional pilots? Some are stuck and want to see contract progression without listening to a lame entitlement lecture! In my opinion a twenty year regional captain should be paid close to mainline FO pay. Why? Because the responsibility is there regardless of which way you want to look at it. 130-140/ hr isn't too far fetched

Everyone is being sent out to NY to scrap for cash! For the life of me, I don't understand how a new hire can afford NY. 300/month on crashpads, plus transportation food. Even with a bonus it's really hard to accept a job in NY.

You're right, it takes work to make it through this career while keeping your nose clean. But you have to factor in that the majors have 10,000+ apps on file with a majority of applicants thinking their hours and longevity will punch their ticket. It takes a little more than just showing up and doing your job well to get in the ~10% that will get the opportunity to interview.
