There is a certain 'freight-dog' on here and FB that I follow that really gets it... He stays at NetJets because it works for him. He's been on both sides recently (like I have) and sees the big picture. Everyone has different goals in aviation... hopefully goal #1 is to be happy at work! Everything else is secondary.
I took a huge gamble leaving the left seat after 12.5 years for something I had never done before. It paid off and I am very satisfied I made the jump... but ultimately I did it because I didn't see myself being 'happy' long term at NJ. Others do, and I will always wish them the best of luck. I have many very close friends still there. I hope NJ pilots get everything they deserve going forward, they have earned it.

The safety record speaks for itself. I was proud to be a NetJets pilot and when asked where I came from, I tell them!

This thread will rapidly turn positive in NJA's favor when the airline guys who will be furloughed someday from the next religion of peace attack begging for a job there. What's hot today won't be tomorrow...
Not trying to be a d!ck....Just been around through many tumultuous times...At some point, we're all going to be left with a few scattered frac jobs available again. Just enjoy life already.
Just look how quickly that Atlas thread went to $hit...
