I don't need the benefits but making 60k as a captain isn't appealing either. I don't want commute. Xjet higher pay, but no upgrade in sight and Mesa low pay but will make more with faster upgrade. Just seems like both are crap. Like one bid sh$t sandwich that I have to bite.

There are many well founded comments here addressing the big issues; low pay at all levels, no company subsidized benefits, etc, etc but there several small ones as well that just grate on you over time. Two that come to mind; JO will not pay for your much needed Known Crew Member (KCM) membership and deducts $1.25? per paycheck. He won't even pay a buck and quarter for something all other airlines pay for. Another petty but very annoying rule, pilots and crew are not allowed to take a bottle of water off the plane! A bottle of water!!!!
JO is beyond cheap, he's evil to the effect of bringing out the very worst in the companies employees. I can't stand the place and moving on.

"We all just do it" but you're violating company policy and subject to discipline....for freeking water!!! Lol. It's like a joke someone makes up. Leadership meetings probably start with a bullet point on a presentation... "How do we stop these bastard pilots from drinking all our bottled water".

YV
the planets have lined up for YV pilots to make a cost neutral lateral move. It's the best chance you will have to sneak out the back door. Its probably the only chance many of you will have getting to a legacy. Your life will be better anywhere else. Make sure the psycho YouTube guy finishes his career at YV for all of our sake.

Since when can we not have a bottle of water? I haven't seen any memo on this from the company. Just wait until a whole crew calls out sick in Mexico because they weren't allowed to take a bottle of water for their overnight....I am getting so tired of this place.
