That day has come......
Is this really something to be proud of? Came back and underbid everyone and lowered the bar even more...

Wow what a fellow rad-riddler turned skybestie. Thanks for pointing that out. I guess Skywest never underbid anyone did they ....ahem##PhoenixUSAirways##

You know how I know things are changing at Skywest? Years ago those guys didn't give a crap and were nowhere to be seen on the forumboards. Things were genuinely okay over there. Now the new hire westies are everywhere, and the majority of their reserve hours are spent combing the mesa forums. That sucks.

I'm pretty happy where I am. Things are still "genuinely ok" over here. I just thought the phrase "out for blood" was a little strange for someone with JO's reputation, that's all.

Cool

[QUOTE=deltajuliet;1744050] Still, it gets expensive having two places and always paying for fast food, I've noticed crashpads always attract one loud snorer per night,

Snoring pilots make the same as you....private rooms are an option or earplugs..go to Walmart buy some food and a lunch box, PP&J doesn't need a fridge. Remember you don't live at the crash pad you just survive for cheap. Makes home worth cummuting to.

Skywest has 501 50 seat jets according to JO. Hows that going to turn out?

Just wondering if that's too unprofessional for training. Thanks!!
Backpack works great.. blue jeans on Fri and weekends..no tennis shoes or sandals
Bring your headset for the ride alongs after sim. You will need the ipad and holder for sim
