Just bernouli being bernouli and runnin her mouth like she does best.

Sounds interesting...........care to elaborate?:confused:

Congrats man.

All APC nonsense and ball breaking aside. It's great to see your career continue on in a positive direction. Enjoy the blu.

Sure...2008 I got furloughed from Trans States...They told us we have jobs at G7 if we want them. Didn't even need to interview really. Update a resume, show up for a token interview and we would be good to go. So a group of us went. I got a call a week later from someone in HR who I know personally and she was completely surprised that they decided not to hire me. She made it sound like I bombed the "interview." Turns out, out of the 5-6 of us who interviewed...none of us were hired. 2 weeks later I got a call at 5:30 on a Friday, telling me to be in class at 8:00 am on Monday and not to ask any questions why I was now hired. So I show up. 8:30...they gave me a check for a days pay and told me I wasn't in this class and handed me a letter saying I was fired. When I was then recalled to TSA, I asked the CP about it and he chuckled, shook his head, and said that wasn't all that surprising. He said if it was something legimitment, I would have never been recalled to TSA, seeing how I was on probation there at the time as well. I still took all this personally until staying in a crashpad in STL and seeing about 5 new hirers per week come back with that same letter and pack their stuff up for home. I survived the valentines day massacre at TSA so I must know how to do something right. Trust me...I don't sweat it.


Oh...and after the last furlough from TSA...they were nice enough to call and tell me I was elegible for rehire if I would like to interview. I declined.

Wow, sounds like a class act operation...............SMH. Seriously though what is it about regional airlines that make it acceptable to operate a company like this?

There's no excuse for treating people like that ANYWHERE. Glad that things have worked out for you regardless!

We squabble over nothingness on these boards. While I'm thankful for my job, there's a lot about this industry I couldn't defend if I wanted to. I really wish there's was true leadership among our pilots, unions and management.

This is a company that was formed to screw over pilots, why would you be surprised when their management does just that?

That must have been a rough sales pitch at the initial investors meeting....

So I'm thinking of starting a company. This company sole purpose is to screw over pilots. Profits be damned, if there is one pilot left unscrewed then we have failed. Who's coming with me?
