Why does this company continue to hire f-ing pilots??? My frustration is at an all time high and i am ready to quit and work at PSA. Don't believe these recruiters. If you want to get paid crap money to sit on your a$$, reserve sucks. I came here because these recruiters were promising a lot of flying. all i have done is sit on reserve and they award the open time to new recruits so they can be consolidated. Why do they keep hiring??? This is complete BS!!! They haven't announced any new flying and they keep hiring anyone who answers their phone.
Thanks for letting me rant. Now I'm gonna go check out the PSA thread.

It's not about the upgrade or a shiny jet for me. I happen to love aviation. I just want to fly.

Whoa slow down there hoss! Even in the most senior base for FOs (PHX), guys/gals are able to hold a line within 6 months of being online. The movement here is crazy right now. Every month there are several FOs upgrading, making room for everyone else to move up the list. I was hired less than a year ago and will be halfway up the FO list in PHX next month.

Either you don't know how to bid or you just got off of IOE like two weeks ago. Chill out and go drink a kale smoothie with FaceBiter.

Well, I love reserve because I love getting paid to sit on my butt. However, I live in base. Dulles is great for that since we get the new FO's that need their hours. Not sure what reserve is like at the other bases.
That being that, it's winter and the block hours are lower right now. In a few months it'll get busier again and there will be plenty of flying.

Yeah, building seniority sure does suck. A perfect example of the instant gratification crowd.
Pathetic…

18 months ain't bad. Just think, had you not been terminated you would be upgrading soon.

Just think, had you not failed all those checkrides, got popped for a DUI and actually finished college Mesa wouldn't be the only option for you.

If Mesa is as bad as you say it is. Then it must look great on your resume having to explain how you got fired from the place that is the only option for people who " failed a bunch a check rides, got a DUI, and didn't finish college".
