Considering what we get paid, I'll b---- all I want about the lack of pay. We all earn the right to b----- all day and all night about the lousy pay.

Epic post. I am stealing this.

Skybus had 160M when they started and you see what happened... the "Bank" pulled their funds out when gas hit 150/barrel.

Just saw a news report that service to start in October. Looks like they already have the checkin desk up and aircraft painted.

Anyone hired by them?

So whats the pay? I can't decide if I expect it to be better than a regional because this isn't a regional, its a real airline with regional sized planes or worse than a regional because its new and the growth opportunities will cause people to take the low pay.

I was wondering the same thing. I'm not interested in the position but would like to see a new airline come around. I just hope people don't go there for $25 an hour but I think that's what will happen.

I think it might be a good deal if you're furloughed, living on your girlfriend's couch in San Diego, and collecting unemployment. I wouldn't leave a stable job.
