if only I listened to what a FO told me before my interview and a Check airmen said during IOE. Both told me to bail on Comair or keep in touch with my previous employer.

Yeah so what`s your point? If you hate it that bad then leave. People whine and whine about Comair but i am sure there are other regionals with the same issues. I just ate dinner with a friend from SKW and he was complaining about the same things we post on the Comair thread. Again...if you don`t like it leave or do your time until you can find a better job.

What happened to bidding a window and getting that window (or at least ONE window)?? Oh yeah, and I did not bid for A4 at all, and A2 was my 4th choice of 5.

I got the same crap! I thought with DTW things will get better?! I guess that was just another lie.

There seems to be a lot of reserves just sitting around on the FO side in JFK right now, not sure if it's because the flying is winding down here, good weather or if we are actually properly staffed on the FO side right now. CA side is a different story...

I hear we're still covering JFK since PCL can't spin up in time. Time will tell...
