Dude, listen to the other guys who appear to know you. If Mesa didn't hire you with your hours, something is wrong. And I mean this in a constructive way that will hopefully help you get the job you want.

Hope that isn't too hard to understand, I had to read it over a couple times to make sense of it and I wrote the thing
Bottom line: its not worth risking a black mark like that just because you can't wait the 2 weeks it takes to build your 10-20 hours to meet the mins.

Who Knows,, I was not offered a job at XJT because they didnt like my total multi Time in the last 6 months. Mind you I have over 170total multi.. I was turned down they said the TECH and Jepp and HR went well just that I didnt have enough multi in the last 6 months.. so guess what they said to reapply in 3 months.. and 3months to the day I had an email inviting me to another interview session, I didnt want to waste their time or my time and called them and asked just what kind of experience they were looking for multi wise in the last 6 months.. the person I spoke to said somthing like 60-100 I almost fell out of my chair at anyrate I got the email invite after sucessfully interviewing with comair I start Class on DEC 7, at Comair.. I can tell you at comair the Interview Experience was Just about the same as XJT but they use a whole person concept. XJT is a Great company and I would have loved to fly for them based on Domicile but there are other companies out there who will be compeating for pilots soon, so all is not lost dont give up and if you really want XJT keep trying. I just didnt want to put my eggs in one basket and hold out for one perticular company. This Industry is Crazy and unpredictable- so get in where you can and learn as much as you can I am in my 30s so no need for you to be desperate, remember ASA ACA Comair were and still good compaines ACA now defunk but things can take a Crap dive at any company so although XJT is relatively Healthy now that can change I hope that dont happen but ASA and Comair is taking a Beating from Delta at the moment, I dont know whta XJT contract is with Continental but they did loose 33% of their flying I say that to say this no one has a crystal ball to look at and all you can do is Hope for the best and go to work and do what you are paid and trained to do...
