Default Mesa Cancelling Upgrades

Just heard from a friend who is still at Mesa...they are cancelling upgrade classes. ***?? Can't say I'm surprised. It was only a matter of time before that whole hot mess of an operation began to implode. Sorry for anyone who went there chasing that quickie upgrade.

JO can go screw himself. Don't feel bad for him or Mesa at all. For anyone and everyone still there: GET OUT NOW! Run for your life! I got out and things improved so much I can't even describe it in one post. My entire life improved and all the residual effects that go along with it. I'm even in better shape...the improvement to my mood inspired me to hit the gym more. At Mesa I was so beat down all the time all I wanted to do was eat my feelings and crash in front of the TV.

No, seriously. Life is better on the outside. Once you leave Scare Shuttle you will understand what I mean.

The upgrade classes are still there. They just are re running the bid award. Same class dates and everything. They couldn't fill IAD CA vacancies bc not enough qualified people currently have it in their standing bid. Plenty of CA qualified people who want E175 CA and DFW/PHX CA. Get a life bro.

Are they cancelling upgrade classes outright? Or are they just shuffling class dates around? I've been around long enough to know how these things work. Not enough CAs to fill one vacancy bid so they cancel it and funnel everyone into another class down the road.

Either way, keep your chin up Mesa. I'm not a fan of Mesa as an airline or JO as a person but wish you guys the best.

*Edit: ^^Looks like me and BeatNavy posted at the same time. Looks like I was right! lol...

Doesn't matter. It's a chink in the armor-such as it is. Mesa is a leaky dam that will burst at any moment. Cancelling upgrade classes is bad, man. The so-called reasons they give are just an attempt at keeping the masses ignorant of the approaching wild fire. Like I said before, GET OUT NOW! Run for your life...

There is no excuse to subject yourself to the purgatory that is Mesa when EVERYONE is hiring. The wholly owned airlines are the ticket these days...and I know that cuts painfully deep to the folks over at Skywest who love to turn their noses up at everyone.

Ok. I'm not going to gloat or even pursue this thread any further. I don't work at Mesa so I see that as out of bounds. I would suggest the same for you. Don't be like so many other hyenas on this forum who trash talk airlines they don't work for. And I would especially not kick anyone when they are down. Bad form man.

Funny, the sims have been full every day this past week. Just spoke to a pair of CA upgrades today. They seemed pretty happy to be where they were.

Just remember, HL... Mesa has been around longer than you. I suspect they will be here quite a long time from today. I doubt they will implode because you left. A piece of advice - don't become one of the used-to-be's that hang around the old company threads, trying to spread gloom and doom. There's already more than enough of those here on APC. Move on, and be happy you are making a better world for yourself.

No upgrade classes were canceled. They are rerunning the bid hoping people will fill the IAD CA vacancy so they don't have to hire street captains.

Doesn't hurt at all, we're losing people to the majors in droves. So much so that even with 80 newhires starting every month, we're barely keeping up with attrition.
