I'm kidding. Type makes no difference. I hope I didn't cause any CRJ drivers to stroke out.

Nah, I'm good.

If I called during APW to grab a trip they would call me an hour later and tell me a lineholder took it.

What year were you hired again??? Times have changed

That’s kind of my point. If I have one, which I rarely do.

What’s true today won’t be true tomorrow.

Mesa was recently, not positive if they still are.

Regardless, if you have the qualifications and make it through training, you can upgrade whenever you apply for it. They are short on Ejet CA’s.

Staffing. Because people use Mesa as a stepping stone and move on.

Go to whichever regional has base near where you live. Drive to work will make your life 1000% better. Even if you have to wait. Don't commute.

Nobody ever told me how ****ty commuting would be, and like you, I decided to commute to the best regional and after 3 yrs I'd much rather drive to a crap regional. Much rather
