Fair enough, no offense meant. I thought the introduction email a few months back indicated JB was the only female.

The chairwoman resigned for personal reasons. It was nothing to do with Mesa or the job itself.

There is so much movement and hiring going on everywhere. I just declined my upgrade class earlier this month on the ejet. Was offered a March class date with Virgin America a few days before I was going to start training. Spent 2 years at Mesa and finally winding down the last few days with them. If you don't give up on applying and keep on updating you will get a call from a major, trust me that's what happened to me. Never give up and get complacent.
It's been a pleasure flying with the crews here. They are truly amazing people to work with. Yes we do have our issues with management and contracts that need to be up to industry standards by all means possible. I hope that the company and work on this and realize the importance of of treating employees well. I hope all the best to the pilots and the crews here.

Feb 18th class here.
We got our wine and dine from ALPA the other day and I noticed something odd.
I asked the same question 3 different ways and got the same answer.
Is it me, or do they love to hear themselves talk?
We get long winded explainations, but never an answer.
The question was:
Yes, we chose Mesa knowing the conditions, but what is ALPA doing to start getting Mesa to meet the trend that other regionals are offering?
I'm learning fairly quickly, that ALPA here does not care enough to effect change.
He was more than happy to blame the company, but the contract has been amendable sine 2010(?), I think.
I don't see any real information being disseminated out to us from the union or the company.
Just sharing an experience with everyone!

PAY WILL ONLY GET BETTER WHEN THEY CANT STAFF!
I'm not really sure why this is such a difficult concept to understand.
