Mesa Airlines fires its chief financial officer
 

hmm... I wonder who's next... :D

The twisted thing about Mesa is that the CEO JO is acting like he 'didn't know' this was all going on.

Of course he knew what was going on, he was the leader/criminal of the illegal actions they underwent to start flying into Hawaii. They just chose the CFO as the person to throw under the bus to TRY to save the company. All of the news releases try to reflect that management didn't know that this ONE guy did everything illegal. IT WAS THE ENTIRE MANAGEMENT TEAM!


The future of Mesa is dark aka seniority there means less and less every day!

duplicate..............

That's a good start, but the holy grail is of course the removal of JO....

Golden Parachute
 

I wonder what his severence package will include? I guarantee he won't hurt for money.

Ya know if I threw an old college buddy under the bus like that I'd be in for an arse beatin'. Wonder how thier friendship is NOW?

A summary of the suit(s) in Hawaii:

http://kgmb9.com/main/content/view/1327/108/

"Bill has served Mesa well as our Vice President of Finance and we look forward to his continued responsibility for our financial and accounting operations," said Mesa Chairman and CEO, Jonathan Ornstein."

Read closely I dont think he is being fired....just reassigned quote "We look forward".... I'm sure he's getting a big payoff!

Sounds like Bill is the fired guys replacement.

Yeah William Hoke is the new guy, Murnane is the one that got thrown under the JOmobile.

Bill (William) is replacing George as CFO.

Rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic? This optomist thinks so...

HAHAHAH! nice

yahoos, every single one of 'em
 

I am so embarrassed to be a MAG pilot. What a bunch of a** clowns. What a circus. I just can't believe it. What an absolute JOKE, yo. We are the laughing stock of the industry, and have been for a long time anyhow. Those who think we can turn this thing around with a better contract are kidding themselves. Oh, and it looks like our scope-clause got violated yet AGAIN!!!

Here is a rundown of the MAG shinanigans (sp?) over the last year plus:
1. Sued for kicking a pax off for breast feeding in Burlington VA
2. Pilot arrested for stealing out of the TSA security bins
3. Sued by Hawaiian
4. Going to be sued by Aloha
5. Probably going to be sued by Hawaiian again
6. Go is killing us... how much have we lost there so far??? Is it hundreds of millions yet?
6. Canceled vacations
7. Lady dies after making a scene 'cause she was denied boarding in PHX
8. Two separate occasions of scope violations
9. Fined heavily by UAL because we were not staffing adequately
10. Negotiators denied release to begin contract talks (there's only 3 of them, yo- we are that understaffed???)
11. MEGA attrition
12. JA's up the ying-yang
13. A plethora of pilot violations
14. Newhires who can't get it together... 175 hours of IOE? Come on... stop treating IOE pilots and newhires as reserves to fill in the blanks.

Add anything you can think of to the list... this sucks. This just basically sucks. As a MAG pilot, I am such a loser it's incredible yo.
:mad:

dont really know what to make of this post?

Its a pretty accurate post but I could have done without the "yo's"

Was that Sky Harbor death incident a Mesa flight or Airways mainline?

Her flight into PHX was mainline and her connection to TUS was Mesa. MESA's the only airline that runs PHX-TUS. I think they run it 11 times a day with all the a/c (Dash 8, CR2 & CR9).

ERJ Driver is your app in elsewhere? The biggest thing you can do to hurt Mesa is leave. You'll love your life outside JO's reign.

-LAMA

14. Newhires who can't get it together... 175 hours of IOE? Surly you Jest! Is this true????:eek:

It appears there has been no throwing of anybody under anything!!!
Please read this article for clarification:

I thought I was fairly crusty at this point, but NOOOOO! I have yet to stop being amazed.
:mad:

15. Lies, lies and more lies.

Correction on #4 - Sued by Aloha.

Don't feel like a loser for being at MAG - you're not the one watching porn on company computers. ;)

Get your time, get involved with the union while you're there, and look forward to LAMA.

Even better yet, get your time at a company that will respect you. Mesa doesn't. If you are stuck there and waiting to get out, get involved in that union. Sounds like they need help.

LAMA is a good place to be, but Mesa will never improve if people continue to apply to work there.

PS - I hope Aloha sues she crap out of JO. Good luck!
