When I put in my resonation, no email back no thank you no kiss my @#$%. My Schedule just showed red marks. And Finally got an email saying we show this as your last day. If y'all can you should Leave.

Obviously there have been zero attempts to better attract new hires or give us a real retention package. It makes sense. And for the non-believers, denial ain't just a river in Africa.

And of course to get my stuff out and GTFO. I brushed it off at the time and said to myself things could change by the time that happens, but lo and behold here we go, ASA closing, rumors of ERJ side closing too.

Any goals I have here are short term. Maybe get another type rating to show that I am, in fact, trainable.

It is truly unfortunate that so many people became so comfortable and failed to listen to so many - especially over the past four years.

I think at this point it’s just laziness and apathy that keeps people frozen where they are. A new type rating goes a long way in the eyes of a recruiter.
