I dont know... They didnt send me a check, I guess I'll just have to wait and see when they send me my check stub. It was a total deposit of like 1,200$.. but I flew 10 hours last month, so I guess that is included too... I dont know if it is right or not, I guess I'll just have to wait and see....

Thumbs down Turbodog

Turbodog:

All you do is complain about your job at Comair and how bad the company is. I agree with you that Comair is not what it used to be and the job is very frustrating. But when you have 300 pilots on the street with no income other that unemployment, it’s hard for me to give you any sympathy. If you hate your job that bad, please quit TODAY and allow one of us that are about to get furloughed to keep our job. Good luck to you.

Pretty harsh my friend. I know TD isn't trying to be insensitive to the rest of us. But just because he has a job doens't mean the company isn't creating crappy trips. QOL still applies for those left on the property.

I never liked the sentiment of "just be happy you have a job". That's when the worst agreements are struck.

Sorry, but for you to ask me to quit my job so you can have one is just not appropriate. If we look back through these threads we will see that you have done your fair share of complaining. If you don't believe there is anything here to complain about then I encourage you to submit your resume to Mesa Air Group.

By the way, if I quit today, you are still going to be furloughed. Sorry, it's out of my control.

I agree. I feel bad that anyone is on the street. In fact I feel fortunate that I am not on the street yet, though I will most likely be on the street in Feb or Mar.

I’m not asking you to quit your job so you can same my job. I know it will not make a difference if you quit or not, we will still be furloughed. You seem to hate your job and never have anything positive to say. Why would you want to work in such environment? I agree with you that the job sucks and the QOL sucks, but we have to make the best of it. We cannot control what the company, management or the economy do. But why be miserable.
All I’m asking you to do is be sensitive to your fellow brothers and sisters on the street.

I agree with you, we should not be happy to just have a job. I would like to see things change and be better for everyone. But why would you want to continue working for a company if you hate the job. I know all of us need the money to provide for our families and so on. I would try to make the best of my job till i find somthing better to do.

NO, I would not work or apply at Mesa, I'd rather work at TacoBell. At least I will get free Taco's

Obviously no. Also, it seems that spelling hasn't been taught in the public schools for quite some time now.

I'll correct that for you... NOTHING has been taught in public schools. Teachers aren't teachers anymore, they are underpaid (for the most part) babysitters

Not allowed to make an "X" through an incorrect answer anymore... X is too harsh, it might "damage a child."
Not allowed to use red ink anymore, red is too embarrassing and painful and will "damage the child."
Not allowed to discipline the child for misbehaving, they must discuss emotions so as not to "damage the child".
Not allowed to hand out F's anymore, they make the child feel like a failure. (Anyone see the irony?)
Not allowed to give pop quizzes, they cause too much sudden anxiety.

Political correctness is setting this country up for a major disaster, economy be dam**d.
