Same goes for your anonymity.
What attitude? My realist attitude? I don't profess only the butterflies and rainbows at Mesa and I don't take *** from anonymous people on a forum? Ok. Fire me. Oh wait.

No kidding. Where's the holiday cheer people. In other news, when is the announcement for the new ejets? And a real question, anyone hear about an effort to set up a CTP at Mesa for the Atp written a la xjt?

I remember when the Trans States pilot and the mechanic got in a fist fight at the A gates.

Actually even before that, during the ACA/Independence Air stuff when we had I think the remote "F" gates. Now THAT SUCKED!!!! Those remote gates were like a greyhound bus station in North Central Philly. Oh and back then, no KCM either so you if you timed it just right you'd be able to get behind the 19 person Saudia Crew going through the only employee lane.

Dulles isn't even that expensive, unless you're living as if you are on "single airline captain" wages and staying at hotels while on reserve. Dulles crew rates are high, ground transportation is a nightmare with the Flyer. But overall it is doable and guys b*tchin have no idea what Dulles was. Besides dulles lately has to be extremely temporary for most. Suck it up and bid out.

scuffle mentioned above was caught on film:

It was the G gates… a bus terminal would have been more organized. With all of the screens, trash, smells, and wildly "organized" seating it felt like a failing Vegas casino's Keno room. And you got to ride the bus's from the C/D term in the blistering cold. So epic!

THOSE were the days!

So did the company really plan for a Boston market catered thanksgiving dinner for those in IAH, and when everyone showed up the Company CC was declined?

Attempt at moderation…..

Not to flame bait but ihateIAD's been calling a duck a duck and appears to have done his homework. Maybe he hasn't paid his dues, but he claims to have... and ill buy that. Undoubtedly at YV he will continue to do so? Show up, doing your job, and cut out. If whoever sees it differently and want to make this place a career then so be it, that's cool too I won't fault you.

IAD isn't fun and working for any company can be frustrating… and they definitely were a good bit worse. 8 hours of "rest" gate to gate, +2 months straight of BAD CDO's, rampant JRAs, etc. Complaining to fellow employees is pretty standard… just gauge who you're complaining to and where. No, there weren't always 1 year upgrades and legacies hiring +100 a month. Some of the employees have been shot or shot at (I'm referring to military not STL turns), furloughed, downgraded, or otw kicked in the groin... and this is cake compared to their past. We've all heard it before use your best judgement and be cool, keep it professional, do your job, and enjoy your days at home.

I also can't stand IAD(the base)

I don't mind IAD.

Then again I was based at LGA and CMH before coming here and those REALLY DID suck. D
