Pilot stuff is a bit of a pompous jerk.

Did he say something that wasn’t true or did the way he said it give you an ouchy?

Sarcasm? Pretty good time to be a new hire at XJT, IMO 🤷*♂️

Yeah if you come in knowing what the regional life is like, it’s definitely not a bad place to be right now. I start Monday and look forward to it. It’s all in perspective. Strike while the hiring is very active.

I don't know him nor his posting history, but based on my 12.5 years at XJT his post about why pilots are angry at XJT is 100% accurate. A good, nuanced post.

An ouchy? No.

I’m sure what he’s saying is largely true. Alot of the reason I left XJT. I just said (and it’s just my opinion) that he’s a pompous jerk about it.

That’s all. Does that give YOU an ouchy????? :-)

I’m not the one who got his panties in a wad about someone stating facts and opinions.

Sure. Whatever makes you feel better.

6 months ago, there were 1-2 new hires per quarter at best There’s a reason no one was applying. There are approximately 256 new hires this year. There are 4 times as many people that are NOT new hires. Ask those folks if it’s a pretty good time to be someone other than a new hire.

Point is, it won’t take long for the “new hire” treatment you are getting to turn into what everyone else experiences.

Enjoy

Sorry things haven’t turned out the way you were hoping. Maybe I’ll have the same experience, maybe not. I hope not and I hope your luck changes and you move to the left if you’re not there already or you move on to where you wan’t soon.
