You talking about A.H. or S.F.?

The good guys like you who have departed

Hating NetJets because it has issues doesn’t make someone a “miserable guy”. However, lying to yourself and co workers about the job you have just makes you look like an idiot.

Dude you are exhibit A for the negative party , but his representing it as Nirvana is just as misleading, the truth lies in the middle , but I think most people get that , I’m not hating on you by the way it’s just that your posts are almost as comically negative, as his are over the top positive . By the by pt 121 pilots aren’t “ bus driver ‘s “ it’s a great way to earn a living .

There are a few things about Netjets that I miss BUT the fish anything in a plastic box is not one of them.

The rental car? Yup I miss those.
Lounge access? Yup, even the metal card doesn’t guarantee entry on an airline room.
International eat fests on the company dime? Yup. 400 bucks for dinner, no problem.

Do I regret my choice, NEVER. Haven’t had this much fun since Jetstream days...

The crazy man. AH

The second one managed to get hired somewhere? :eek:

That was a guy who made even the worst days bearable. Remind me to tell you about my overnight in NOLA with him. The setting: it was my first overnight there, ever, and it was the night of the LSU vs. Alabama game and the next day's show wasn't until 2200L.

Now there are certainly worse jobs than NJA, but let's be honest here shall we? Allow me to address these one by one:
1) Your opening statement is not only an insult to major airline pilots, but also a pot calling a kettle black. We have our number of brainless pilots and gummers too, just like anywhere else. Ask any senior FO about babysitting. "Bus driver"? Hey man, we all fly planes. So whether you are driving a bus full of kids or driving someone's rich kids...all you are doing is driving kids to school.
2) yeah, we're never awake at 3 am at NJA :rolleyes: . And your drive to DCA is no different than my 0300 wakeups for an airline to Dallas, followed by 2 or 3 legs of flying. Get real.
3) I had a life for 15 days a month too when I was at the airlines, don't know what you are talking about here.
4) We all flinch when the brief updates come (usually more flying after the "last leg") just like you did on reserve.
So we all get it, you had a bad time at the airlines. Many, or more accurately, MOST of us had a good time. I don't see any boomerangs coming back to NJA from active (not retired) major airline jobs. None. NJA certainly aint the worst job in the world and things seem to be getting better, but if you really think major airline jobs are hell, you are indeed wearing some blinders.

And you survived?

:D
