Also, when you say 1000 121/135 PIC and SIC, you should double check the regs. The 135 PIC that's usable for meeting the requirement is very specific. If you've got 1,000 121 SIC it's a moot point obviously.

They seem to be running 2 months from interview to class date around here. When they offer you the job and a class date, if it works with your situation tell them you'd be available for any earlier openings that come up. I did that and ended up moving up a class.

1400 121 SIC
1100 135 PIC
7400 TT
Thanks for the info.

Some of the folks got CLT CA for their upgrade too! You would think that would be senior and hard to get on first bid.

I don't disagree with you. However, going to HR instead of just politely asking the instructor(s) to tone it down wasn't the right thing to do. On day one, they had no idea if this would of potentially put the instructors job in jeapordy or if it would of been laughed off by HR. There is a proper way to do things and that isn't it.

Disagree all you want but it is true, you wouldn't hear some of the stuff I heard in PSA's indoc at the majors. I have been flying 121 for ten years and been on every every major airline jumpseat multiple times and yes you will hear that stuff on the flightdeck but not in your first day of indoc from an instructor so that really isn't a valid comparision. I know you love PSA and feel the need to defend them all of the time but some of us have an outside perspective beyond just the old mom and pop operation. I have seen people kicked out of the training department for much less in my time so feel free to say whatever you want just don't be suprised (esp in the year 2015) that some of it may come back to bite you. Having a little self awareness goes a long way.
Oh well, it's said and done. Time to move on.

Called out - go after , whatever.
My point is valid and you know it.
I don't think we are adults at all. That is very obvious. Adults know how to be professional and set a standard. After all, many of the people in your indoc classes are barely in the adult world as far as age, and are very impressionable. I love how you guys all rush to play damage control when yet another embarrassing feature of PSA comes out. It only makes you look more unprofessional.
Bottom line: if your indoc IPs are cussing so much that it has come up on an Internet forum, by several people that have both like and disliked it, then you have a problem. Stop trying to cover it up and address it. Calling people names, bashing them for not bringing it up to the individual directly, and posting silly memes, really is just your usual form of misdirection.
Whatever you have seen in the cockpit of legacy carriers is not the same as in an indoc class. I can assure you it does not go on at Envoy either. We have rules here that would get you fired for cussing your heart out on indoc. I simply cannot believe you are defending it in ANY way.

Get a grip. People have opinions, they don't need to hear 13 different ones from one person (you)

Because Doug calls the shots, and I presume it was the cheaper way to merge/acquire. What I am sure of, is that the decision was not influenced by alleged indoc instructor language in a wholly owned subsidiary.
