In other company news, and as Dave Barry says "I am not making this up":


Safety Dept at Mesa today informed at least two pilots who have stayed at the La Quinta in Memphis within the last x weeks, that the hotel has tested positive for Legionnaire's Disease and it was 'suggested' the employees seek medical testing if there are any potential symptoms.


What is beyond me is why there hasn't been an all-aircrew email blast sent out notifying us. I strongly suggest you send this information to everyone you know that may have stayed at this hotel.


Memphis hotel shut down after outbreak of Legionnaires? Disease confirmed


5 Legionnaires' Disease cases found in Shelby Co. hotel - WMC Action News 5 - Memphis, Tennessee

If only this could have been discussed on the company call...

Mesa hotels make me vomit... or get Legionnaire's Disease lol

Oh, good! Ornsitien can get a better rate upon reopening.

Don't worry about it man, thats why we have excellent healthcare plans

Haha I'm Mclovin' it

Well I think I am soon to be a Lama, the call was enough to put me at a point that nothing is ever going to get better. Anyone that has friends at other airlines throw Mesa FOs a life line out they may need it. I was cautiously optimistic but my delusions were exactly that. Hell I think Great Lakes is better paying than us now. This is industrial leading in the wrong direction.

I've never talked to a Mesa FO who made a lateral transfer to Envoy/Compass/Skywest/Endeavor/PSA who regrets it. Just saying. Not a single one.

My October line at SkyWest is worth $4500 (including perdiem), with 14 days off. It'll be over $5k after I pick up a little open time (gotta love living in base). Will be my first month on 2nd year FO pay. Takes the sting out of seeing all my Mesa classmates upgrading now. [emoji13]

That's good. If you can justify a lateral move then that's awesome! I did it 2 yrs ago to Mesa and I'm glad I did... getting PIC and starting to get all my UA contacts together plus some volunteer work to get out!!
