In the unlikely event the employee sues, they pay 10k in attorney fees and normally the employee will take about 8k in settlement and the total savings is 182k. Please don't think for one second that Gojet is stupid and don't know what they are doing. They have a well planned way to handle their employees and it works. Fire an employee who takes FMLA and save a million dollars when others are afraid to take it. THE MATH WORKS. Hulas is a very smart accountant and has done the math.

If you think you might want to take FMLA then don't come to GoJet. If you have get a medical condition then you are probably going to lose your medical anyway, buy an insurance policy and don't expect Gojet to keep you on during the interim. If you want to go fly for the military as a weekend warrior then don't come to Gojet, Gojet needs full time pilots, not part time. You have choices, choose somewhere else. It's like walking down a KNOWN bad street in Chicago, and after getting raped by a gang of hoodlums, stand up indigently, pull out your computer, have them all gather around, and show them that under the penal code that rape is considered a crime. You are right, it is a crime, but the hoodlums can't resist the honor of raping a pilot and are willing to take the small chance that they would ever be caught and prosecuted. (Note: Under our new mayor and state's attorney pilot rape is not a crime that is likely to still be prosecuted.) Don't go down the bad street in Chicago and don't come to GoJet without understanding that some people are willing to simply break the law and pay the price.
All true about the way that HK runs his airlines. However, one most wonder if they’ve considered the simple fact that with multiple convictions and cases regarding FMLA and insurance abuse that there is now a precedent set and a repeat pattern of behavior.

A good lawyer with that information and the proper evidence could take TSH to the cleaners. It might take a while, but being patient over several years could yield a big pay day or jail time for Uncle H; because faced with the real threat of jail time his minions will turn on him.

It's civil infractions, not criminal. The remedy is money. A person has to have the resources to fight for 5 years and then there is the chance that Gojet's lies are believed. They came up with plans to set people up so they could fire them. Most of the times the plans worked.

Not if it’s Gojets fifth time before a judge for the same issue. Precedent and priors are big in the legal world.

Shouldn't you have an AS seniority number? However bad that commute might be it's got to be better than swearing fealty to Darth Kanodia... I'd rather work for JO.

The AI could be making it all up, or be pulling from some text in its library.

I don't recommend getting legal advice from Bart Esquire.

​​​​​​But I remember hearing about Gojet emergencies, damaged aircraft etc, then searching for information about it and finding nothing. Gojet/United is very good at flying under the media radar.

Darth is widely considered to be the worst of the worst. But, maybe he just hires a-holes who are evil and he doesn't realize that, or maybe the people he hires act as A-Holes because of a mistaken belief that that is what he wants. Whatever the situation, GJ, as opposed to Darth, is the bottom of the bottom, I have no respect for anyone who stays there, I have a lot of empathy but no respect. Darth is suspected to be the bottom of the bottom but we don't really know.

I agree. As someone who has worked at Mesa and Gojet (very very briefly eight years ago) I would take
Mesa and JO any day. Now that is saying something.
