You're not really a LAMA if you're still on the list...you have to quit or refuse recall when the time comes ;)

I'll take that recall right around the time we get stapled to the bottom of SWA's roster. ;)

Has Mesa been furloughing the last few months or this is the first one after the earlier ones?

There was two rounds in June. This round appears to be the feb 11th and 25th classes in their entirety. Congrats to Mesa for their continued pursuit of failure and worthlessness. Just when u think they've actually come close to rock bottom they get out the jack hammers and work feverishly throughtout the night. Hopefully someone will step in before the unthinkable happens.

The actual letter was a microcosm of Mesa... Three paragraphs of generic bs followed by two pages of threats.

Can you post the letter for us?

I have several friends with Mesa who are saying that it is just a big mess. Displacements out of seniority, followed by the long grievance process, followed by this furlough, which is supposed to take place before the displacements. How they plan on staffing the airplanes before the pilots are out of training nobody knows.

I wish you the best of luck. Hopefully you’ll be able to find another job sooner than later.

Flights are already starting to get cancelled due to staffing... I had one yesterday. They're only downgrading half the original number right away, the equipment and domicile displacement was rediculous. I mean a monkey could have done a better job figuring that out. Senior guy getting displaced to different equipment and domicile gets an effective date of 9/1 whilst a junior captain getting downgraded gets to keep his seat and domicle till end of year. Junior assignments are running rampent for FA's right now and they're starting to make cameos again on the pilot side. Honestly, think how Mesa runs itself on a daily basis... The way they're handling this situation is no different if not worse.
