I have never worked for Mesa, but all of my aviation employers (even on the ramp) have had enough coffee available in training class that we had a <0% chance of ever falling asleep.

A guy getting canned for sexual harrassment and a guy bragging about "blowing the boots off 100+ FAs" .... Only in a Mesa thread. Thank you.

Hah, cool, glad you think so.
Amen! Going through FB opens you up to the employer. They'd be able to view every post, picture, etc. I know several small business owners that use FB as an initial "background" check for prospective employees.

Line holders, esp. senior line holders have it relatively good.
Our vacation Bidding/Awarding "system" is flawed at best.

Prior, I'm not saying you're wrong, but I don't agree with what you are saying.
The CRJ, esp. The 200, is alot more of a Stick n Rudder bird that the Ejet.
There's a whole different philosophy built-in to the EJet.
In a nutshell, the CRJ is designed to be flown by the Pilot, with some help by the automation. The Ejet, on the other hand, was built by and for the automation to handle most of the workload, with the pilot "managing" the automation.
It was built with the fact in mind that most customers are in Third World countries, where Pilot Training is...Well not quite up to Mesa Standards....
With that in mind, it's hard for CRJ Guys to let go and let the automation do its thing.
For new hires, who are probably 20 years younger, it's a different story. For the younger generation computers and automation are a natural part of daily life and therefore I think they can grasp the concept of allowing a computer to fly the airplane...
That's my take on it.
I'm sure the darts will start flying at this one now.
Ya'all be safe out there.
BS.
