You have no idea. And that is the problem. You are a cheerleader for the mediocrity that is Envoy. You just see what has been good for you rather than wanting it to be better for everyone.

I have a lot of ideas. I'm not a cheerleader for anything. It's a great gig, as long as you live in base with no other reasonable options.

And what have you done to make it better for everyone?
Let me guess - absolutely nothing.

Maybe you’ll get lucky and avoid being displaced into a 145 as Captain.

And maybe if you avoid the 145 and get the 175 you’ll avoid a year of reserve, but don’t count on it.

Airport standby and two hour “long call” are still crap reserve rules.
He is just being realistic unlike you who seems to thrive on putting out a lot of negative diatribe about Envoy that is simply not true. It's likely the problem is who is staring back at you from the mirror.

I vascillate on whether Envoy creates smug 175 FOs who’ve hardly experienced reserve on purpose to doom pilot unity or if it’s just because they’re bad at staffing. Regardless of whether they do it on purpose though, it is highly effective.

Show me a quote that I have ever said anything that is untrue.

Forced upgrades and reserve that is only airport standby and two hour call out. Industry lagging pay. What other carrier can you say that about. Add to that the latest in adversarial management.

Dera thinks everything is fine as long as he can get more people below him on the DFL reserve list.

As long as Envoy is getting that, nothing will improve.

I can guarantee that if he had ended up not getting his SNJ in DFW he would have a different line.

Envoy can be two completely different airlines. BUT NO MATTER WHAT AIRCRAFT YOU ARE ON, OR WHETHER YOU LIVE IN BASE, ENVOY COULD BE MUCH BETTER.

I agree Envoy can be two different airlines. I’m with dera though as I live in base (NY145) and haven’t really experienced the suck. Although with the line reductions... we’ll see

Airport standby doesn't happen often, no big deal.

It's all about living in base. If you commute, well, choose another airline.
In A month or two?! Do you even know how this airline works?? The vacancy closing tomorrow is filling spots in OCTOBER.

No, he doesn’t. He has just been lucky with his limited exposure. He just thinks he knows everything.

Ok. So the guys who got 145 ORD in October didn't get the award for 145 DFW next bid, right, and are happily now at DFW?
Oh I'm sorry, they did.

Sorry, but at least try to have some facts in your arguments. I know its hard.
