I would wager that every crew line adjuster, every crew track person, every stores person, and every mechanic is doing the job of at least FIVE people. When one person quits, I imagine it creates a small crisis. As far as picking up trips, etc, try to bid right the first time so you don't have to go through this. If your modus operandi is to drop everything, and rebuild a schedule, you should had gone to PSA.

Can you imagine if Kendra left? I think everything would come to a grinding halt.

Yeah it would be bad. I think they gave her a raise maybe a year ago.

I know Kendra was very very overwhelmed after Kourtnie left.

K wasn't because she deals with sim schedules, not IOE. M on the otherhand was. It will get very interesting in less than about a month though. I'm personally a LAMA member for the past 6 weeks....finally!!! Good luck to all current pilots. To all future pilots, pick some place that you'll be happy at for 10-20 years if the 's' hits the fan. (As an FO) Better to prepare for the worst scenerio than hope for the best. (Quick upgrade). In the past 2 years, United has hired FAR more Xpress Jet FO's with no PIC than Mesa pilots with years of PIC/check airman/OEO/Regional chief, etc. American ground schools are heavily filled with flow through and Delta is snagging as many military pilots and other select pilots (being PC correct with that one) as possible. Good luck to all in any endeavor you choose.

That is done after the fact, after bids are due, etc etc. If I filed one for my latest schedule changes not being done in less than 48 hours, they would pursue it, crew line will get my schedule change done 48 hours late, it would then be "resolved" and nothing would change. Glad I'm leaving this company soon enough.
Sorry (glad?) to hear you're moving on. You're one of the few level-headed and well spoken people on the board, and I've always valued your input during discussion. May I ask where you're off to?

They manually process every single transaction bc the 117 parameters were never inputted--I promise you.
Again, why does Mesa management make all of this work for itself?

I believe that several airlines also use the same Flicka software.
I'm quite sure they don't do every single add, drop, swap, etc. manually by hand.

I see a lot of different aviator leather jackets out on the line and I haven't seen anyone arrested by the uniform police yet.
