Look, it's my opinion...take it or leave it. Based on how some people react to differing views on here, it's a wonder that they can function in the real world at all, really. My advice is to not lose any sleep over it.

Your argument that getting stapled to SWA is the best thing possible for a ATN pilot

Some would argue that Colgan pilots hit the jackpot and would be fine financially if we were stapled, as we saw significant gains in compensation.

It's all relative, and has nothing to do with how much less regionals pay than mainline. It's not ok to staple United to Continental because both airlines are paid mainline wages.

My original point is that you have no clue whatsoever about how the industry works and instead of attempting to educate yourself or help make things better at Colgan, you instead sit your computer desk and rant on internet forums, all the while only keeping one thing in mind, what's best for you, no matter what the situation.

1700 on Friday, that would be last minute and may very well be the case.

We find it's always better to fire people on a Friday. Studies have statistically shown that there's less chance of an incident if you do it at the end of the week.
