Tired of hearing you, meritflyer...you're singing the same old song, you've just got beef with SkyWest. Come clean now, why are you so bitter? Would we not hire you?

Enjoy the "ride".

Incredibly immature and unprofessional. I can't take this guy seriously, let alone heed anything he has to say about the company I work for.

Merit, for the sake of anybody who has to put up with you for 3 days at a time, I hope you're more tolerable in person than here.

It's easy with well paying locals/stand-ups. For example, you can pick up several locals (each blocking less than 2 hrs, but crediting min daily at 3:45), a stand-up that blocks 3 hrs and pays over 7, trips with dead-heads, or dropping a lousy 4-day for a very well paying 3-day, etc...It's very attainable, you just have to be very proactive about it...!

Yeah, I suppose plenty of people could come on here and say "I told you so," but who would be so childish as to actually do it?

Whatever.

Default Qol

Oh - how nice.

Notice at the end of the message that there are a number of QOL improvements in the works, but these will not be a part of this vote.

Is it somehow implied that a NO vote will somehow affect the outcome of these supposed QOL tweaks? If it's got nothing to do with this vote, then why even put it in the message??

I will vote yes and i encourage everyone else at skywest to do the same. I don't think we would have gotten something much different had we voted in alpa, plus alpa takes their 2% cut too.

God, this is pathetic.

You know, one could make the argument that the continued nature of your SkyWest posts is pathetic, too.

You know, one could make the argument that the continued bashing of EVERY other regional by SKW pilots is pretty pathetic.

People on both sides of the aisle need to realize that what's right for somebody isn't right for everybody, but unfortunately, there's a whole lot of bashing of every other airline out there by the SKW pilots. Why talk about how you "pity" people who haven't had the epiphany to leave their crappy jobs and come to the golden haven that SKW is. The "best" regionals change over night, and some of you guys need to start realizing that talking about QOL differences between different regionals is seen as pretty trivial by those who work at the majors. It's a regional. If you want to stay, great, go to the one that has the best rules, QOL, and pay. If you don't want to stay there, quit talking about the "night and day" difference between the "good" and the "bad" regionals and talking down to the people who didn't come to the same epiphany that you did.
