My friends at Endeavor and Republic HATE it right now. They got hired outside the dream. (EDV with their ridiculous sim scheduling, and RPA with their class date delays). I have 200+ hours more than they do, and we had roughly the same start date.

You need to read what I replied to originally.
Wow, 200 hours? You're killing it. Meanwhile they're making much more than you because the company uses flow as a negotiating tactic against simple minds like yours.

I make more than they do. Nice try though.

Are you serious?? Envoy nearly went under! Every airline has had the bumps in the road, sure, but Envoy was NEVER top dog. Need I remind you of the 2011 BK with AMR, which included Eagle/Envoy??

You have a pretty short memory it seems.
2015-2016 Envoy was one of the better paying regionals with an honest sub-5 year flow for a new hire. Back then Republic was a disaster zone just about to enter bankruptcy, Endeavor barely even existed (they were still using Flagship as their callsign etc), and Skywest was the lowest paying regional of them all.
Eagle also was a well respected regional to work at way before the 2011 and mergers.
At one point in time, Comair was THE place to be. Things move fast in the regional playground.

Sub-5 year flow for those hired in 1999. Highest paying? Republic was the highest starting pay at $40. Skywest $36. Envoy was $26. At Republic we had fought 8 years for a solid contract. You can thank the next Republic and Endeavor pilot for your pay check. It's 100% because of them, AAG even decided to up the pay for you. The industry standard changed. Endeavor and Republic led that battle. I'm not going to say Eagle was never respected, because they were. The sad truth is a WO will always be B-scale as long as your WO carrier offers a flow. The ONLY reason AAG bumped the pay was sheer necessity. Those are some nice E175's you got there, Republic was the first airline to have them and bring them to property. You're welcome again.

Are you implying that new hires should come to envoy because you'll make more money than republic and endeavor? You're a turd, I'll be awaiting your reply where you point out that for 1 weekend in February for 3 new hires that situation was true.

None of what you said here is true.

It's "high" time for you to be drug tested!
