Not to worry, a buddy of mine at TSA is compiling an updated list with all the recent new hires...as soon as I get I'll let ya'll know.

 

The audacity. Give me one reason why you think that place is good. Just one that's all I want. Explain to me what GoJets can do for you that no other regional can. Do you know anything about their contract? Do you know anything about their work rules? Do they pay block or better? How many hrs till you get a hotel room? Any pay guarantee when called out on reserve?

If you can't answer all of these questions right now without having to ask then you certainly have no business accepting any job at any regional let alone gojets. Don't make that mistake. Too many places are hiring for you to go there. That's like someone offering you a Mercedes and you just chose the Pinto.

 

Just remember to not wear your hat, turn your ID backwards, and tell people you work for Trans States Holdings.

 

It doesn't matter, when they hand over their credentials the first thing we look for is that CRJ type......

 

Good man.
I laughed pretty hard when I first heard that GoJetters were putting "TS Holdings" on their resume instead of "GoJet." As if that would throw people off.

 

You have made a serious mistake, you may not see it now, but you sure will in the future. Remember, it's not too late to get out.

 

Tool.

Advise is what people ask for and ignore when the know the answer to the question they ask.

Have a great time.

 

I flew a Continental Airlines FO in the jumpseat about two weeks ago. He was ex-trans states. We talked about Go-jets, he pretty much told me that if he is ever on a hiring/interview board for Continental, anyone that worked for Go-jets can forget about it. I could tell that he was serious! Take it for what it's worth.


Onfinal

 

I fly for GoJet and I enjoy my job. We just signed a CBA on July 19th and will be opening a Chicago base in November. We have CASS, block or better, line guarantee, commuter clause, etc. If you can put up with occasional childish behavior from purportedly mature pilots, while walking through the terminal, then you'll be just fine.

No one here is having any more difficulty finding employment at other airlines than any other qualified pilot out there. There is no list of all the pilots who fly here and even if one existed, it would not hinder your career. The people who care about this kind of thing are the kind of people who come to work, do as little as possible, and go home. There isn't anything wrong with that kind of motivation except that they won't likely be the ones in a position to interview you in the future. Most of the information on this forum is ignorant rhetoric that has very little grounding in fact. Take this information as you will but remember; when you make decisions in this industry, make sure you research the facts, and read very much against the grain when participating in a forum such as this.

"Most of the information on this forum is ignorant rhetoric that has very little grounding in fact."

I don't know. Seems pretty consistantly anti-GoJet everywhere you look. APC, JC, Flightinfo, maybe I'll check PPW later.

I think this site is a good cross-section of the industry. That there is so much hatred for GJ on the internet has to mean something. I know there's a Gojetter at UPS, so it's not like these guys can't get hired. In fact, I doubt hiring departments give much of a crap where a guy got his time. At the same time, it seems Gojet is only slightly above Gulfstream on the internet and a fair amount behind Mesa. Just my observation.

I once had a UPS Capt email me about my opinion on his son going to work for GJ, since I'm a moderator at a popular aviation careers website. I told him I thought it was a bad idea based on what I've heard/read and the reasons why. He angrily wrote back that nothing posted at the internet is worth a grain of salt as there is no truth in what people post. I responded: Then....why ask me in the first place....

All I can say is, popular opinion is vastly against GoJet. Whether that means anything and how that will effect you remains to be seen.
