Ditto. I wish that were the case. It would make things better for everyone, even if it meant sacrificing your current position for a bit.

Funny, I had a CMR Captain tell me that two weeks into my furlough in November of 2001. His name was Joe ?Last Name? in the training department there. That quote from a supposed ALPA brother is what led me to wash my hands clean of CMR. Enjoy the island.

And yes, it is a privilege. Not a benefit, not a right, not part of the compensation package. My company can change your travel privileges any time they see fit(as they can with mainline also).

I'll settle for S3CR but not gonna get the boot from YOUR company employees when I'm on MY airline flight with MY metal and MY pilots while trying to non-rev to go for a interview. Yes it is a privilege and a good one and yes I think we should be behind you folks on your metal but not on our metal.

I am basically throwing selcall words back in his face. I don't think like that, but it appears others get their jollies on others' misfortunes. I am no longer on that island, but I do pull for my brothers and sisters still at CMR. I hope the employee groups at CMR do whatever is necessary to stir things up regarding these crappy flight benefits.

I have no idea what Comair folks are like for the most part (well except for the scowls we got working CVG for a few months), but hopefully you don't base all of your disdain on one person's comment, no matter how vile and inflammatory. If you do, that's your perogative, of course. :cool:

I would say the same about the Delta Guys and Gals.

I would be pi$$ed at this guy too.

If I understand correctly, 8 years ago you were offended by a guy named Joe, who worked in training, and flew for Comair.

So do you hate all people named Joe?

Do you hate every pilot that works in training?

Or are you just looking for a hate vent, and 8 years later you're still all spooled up over one pilot's rudeness?

If I were you I would have been ****ed to. I hate it when I hear co-workers talking like that and unfortunately I have heard worse (though they seem to keep it to themselves when we get a DAL jumpseater).

I was hired well after 2001 (I have about 4 yrs here) and don't like the fact that what the 5% says, ends up screwing the rest of us at CMR.

Personally I wish the pass benefits turned out better, but they are stlll fine with me.
