GoJet did ask for assistance, but they have not announced if they received it, it looks like they are expecting to receive it, since they are now offering Paid Leave of Absences, 35 hours of pay.

Normally a contract would not be written where one side is free to simply not perform, it would not really amount to a contract. What is in the contract is what controls, absent some violation of a public policy (i.e. contract for sex). Can someone PM me their contract and I can run it past the lawyer in the kitchen making coffee or the judge across the street who is bored out of his mind. If he trims his forcyntha bush any more he will kill it.

Yeah they got it and the first payment. Memo out confirming it. Its the same like everyone else. Covers most but not all expenses, looking to keep costs low in the meantime.

I am not sure what do you mean. In our CBA, there is no mention of bonuses, it does not prohibit them either. For those of us that were street CAs and were able to receive part of the bonus, the only "contract" that was signed was a promissory note, where you committed to attend all of the training up to IOE. There is nothing else in writing about future bonuses, other than what the company advertised on their website. The company has announced the suspension of all bonus programs. So again what contract would you like to have?

A contract does not have to be in writing to be enforceable or provable. An offer can be made in the form of an advertisement, come work for Gojet and Gojet will give you this bonus X, with acceptance of the offer being effectuated by going to work for Gojet.

If Gojet survives and still refuses to pay the bonus then you have a court action, if Gojet goes bankrupt then you need to submit a claim to the bankruptcy court and part of the claim may have a priority status. PM me if anyone wants help as I can direct you to people who can help.

”If GoJet survives” is the big question. I think many will be happy to just have a job, even without a bonus, when this all gets settled. The bigger concern is probably shutting the doors just like the other two TSH airlines did.

if it does, the hand slapping check airman with the British accent is possibly going to have trouble finding a job.
Sounds like Sanjay. If so, I concur that he's a bit of a prick. Hopefully that place sinks with him inside it.

hahaha...ya him and the POS whats his face...the old chief pilot...damn what was his name...but those guys always end up at some **** hole country flying or some airline making a **** ass salary like xyz cargo. No way at 40-50 they end up at the big three and especially now the LLCs. Its tuff and will be tuff going forward.

what i have noticed is these guys who make others miserable in this profession are typically weak pilots who project themselves in their fishbowl as knowledgeable in whatever position they latch onto.

GOJET is a perfect example...look back over the best years aviation has ever had...look where these management scum have risen too...
RB...tried for B6 shot down hard, Spiirt I heard didnt work out now at Atlas making 89$ an hour on a 40 yr old 767
Double J...total tool...tried for United...got shot down hard also...guys came out in droves to write letters, then B6 same thing i hear happened...now who knows...
who else oh DF...ya that guy...told me once we didnt need type 4 because it was a star flight and it had to go out on time. Hes what, managing a flight school
Dennis thats it...what a POS bi polar jackoff...hes never going anywhere. He literally ruined peoples lives back in the day.
SanJay...well how much trust does a CRJ 700 have??? ....he can wow his next interviewer with all the amazing info explaining to them how hes 55yrs old applying for a regional job.

so many stories and so many idiots...Thing is...Careful of the toes you step on today...Might be under the Ass you kiss tomorrow...Like when Double J called my best friend for a United Rec...he replied...Dude you were an ******* at G7. Absolutely not.

Btw i did learn allot...besides how not to treat people...i learned allot from our check airmen and finally becoming one it was a great feeling giving back. It was the tuffest job i ever had for so many reasons most of which were because of the people listed above.
