Got called last week for a junior assignment ,,, remember guys the flying were loosing is colgan, not pinnacle, we were still short staffed when the furlough came out on the 9E side, and it's only worse with the bottom guys leaving for skywest and other regionals etc. The Colgan guys will take Months to train on the jet, If I am still here in the summer I am sure it will be pretty rough with the junior assignments

The judge today ruled that delta is allowed to be our dip with 74 mil. This is more important than people realize without it we may have shut down

Damn, I was hoping we would shut down and it would make it a lot easier to leave this POS airline.

If you want out so bad, whats so hard about walking out the door? Nobody's stopping you, might even save a furlough who wants to work.

I love when people say shut it down or let it burn to the ground, they are so full of crap. Must be nice not to have to worry about money

+1. Thank you for saying that. It's not difficult to turn in 2 weeks notice.

They probably don't even own the keyboard they're typing on.

Of course, and management realizes that when they see the "99%" stickers or the "STFD" stickers.

I am sure they can look at how many pilots have there whole family covered under the companys health insurance and figure these employees aren't just going to quit. I agree I wish I had enough money to just walk but the reality is I don't. And if you want to go work for Home Depot great just leave.
