ERJ, thanks and seriously I am new to 121, so I don't understand the vitriol towards PSA while others with similar pay and caps are exempt and let's not start on the majors that killed Comair and are working on Envoy and ExpressJet. Therefore, my situation is to find a job with a base near home while I waited for majors...now they've called and I'm waiting for good news. Never once did anyone in the airport yell at me or tell me how horrible PSA is. If PSA is so horrible, don't work here and stand strong against American. I have some Comair friends who will tell you how solidarity worked out for regional pilots when ALPA only preaches Cabotage and more pay after they pushed 117 and now rail against it.

Don't listen to these internet tough guys. If you live in, or within driving distance to a PSA base you would be foolish not to come here.
Despite what everyone says about PSA being a bottom feeder if you can live with the pay caps(which a new hire right now at PSA will probably never see) our contract is at worst middle of the road. I absolutely cannot overstate how awesome a QoL and money making tool our SAP is. No one in the regionals has anything like it with the supporting language we have......No one.
It was unfortunate that PSA voted in a concessionary deal(on only a couple items) at the time we did but that does not make PSA a bad place to work. No one bad mouths you, no one gives you dirty looks, and most certainly no one talks to your face like they do on this forum. There are of course some days that I don't like working but that's life at a regional, even at god's gift to regionals skywest and compass.
Don't make a career decision based on what some disgruntled blowhard tells you on this forum. Sift through the FACTS and the FACTS only and make the decision that you believe will benefit you the most.
Good Luck.

By signing up for this garbage, you are lowering the bar that many of us are trying to hold or raise. Be warned.
Continue to act like a child when you have a significantly greater chance of talking to either a no voter, or someone who wasn't allowed to vote or someone who wasn't even on our list at the time of the vote.
You are really raising the bar with your actions.
