A little more mulla? How much a few bucks extra for each year? As I said before you'll hardly notice it. Scheduling department talking to you like a human? With Flica you should hardly speak to them at all in my experience the only time I do is when I check out and it usually lasts less than a minute. 1-2 upgrades in order wont produce even a ripple in a small pond. Not trying to attack you or anyone but those are some of the smallest issues I notice on a day to day basis while at work. I really have enjoyed this place and our coworkers but at some point you have to make a choice and say hey I'll ride it out or things just aren't what I want and leave. The frustrations experienced on a daily basis would still make me want to leave even with me making more money, having nice schedulers, and seeing an upgrade in sight or heck even as a captain. Everybody has their own wants and needs in life and Silver gave me a hell of an opportunity to move on to a place I really want to be at. I hope that all you guys get what you want and need out of Silver.

Shhhh, Iownow! I ain't make 'em! Bettah drink yo' coffee!! Mistake by the lakes finest coffee lady, a.k.a. Shabootyquiqui

Ya I know this that's why I said I don't see it as their fault at the end of my post. I don't blame them which is exactly what I said.

I say f it. Lets all just move to Portland. The 90's are still alive there. We can take the light rail and ride our fixed gear bikes to the chicken farms. Who's in?

Thankfully I have that new found enthusiasm and can't wait to start at a new place in a new plane and new part of the country. Still going to miss all you guys though.

I think I remember that Cruz, you also told all of us that "you're not going to make it" and now look at you heading to another carrier.
Listen Guys and Gals as I said before get your time and get out, be based at home or closer to it rather then the out stations that silver has. The staffing bid is BS and seniority some where else is growing by the month... Remember the barrel is increasing Dailey as well don't let it be another 2008, where I missed my shot at an airline and had to wait and had friends that were at the bottom and got furloughed, if it does spike it would be a perfect storm for the Public law and the over sight of pilot shortage to go hand in hand. It all comes in cycles! Good luck Silver thanks for the memories

Moring all im new to this forum but have been watching for a wile. Chris When you say union guy you dont mean Captain Bypass do you? Im sure he was down there to have lunch with ed. stay or go i think its a personal choice and with all the rumors going around im amazed something has not been released yet.
Where did everyone get the rumor about Blue? if it was anything i would assume it would be virgin since thats where prior management came from.
