13 days? More like a couple months, but what's the difference, right? Gee, you sound like the union reps on class date versus sim date. Just a month and half right? Who cares.

Lol! Shy, you just wouldnt stand any thing positive happening at 9E would u? God forbid ur doom and gloom doesn't happen.

Dude, seriously now. You need to back off and give it a rest. Quit stirring man. Every thread you stick ur nose in you always end up creating animosity, and ending up defending yourself every time, why is that? doesn't that tell you something?

Take some time off dude, it won't hurt, we will all be here when u come back. But let 9E handle "their" doom and gloom the best way they can. Last thing 9E needs is a former FO who moved on to greener pastures to come back in on every thread he can to say "told you so!!", "you're doomed!!", "don't believe it, it's a dark future and I knew about it first!!!"

It's not really about whether ur right or wrong, 9E's future may very well be doomed (I personally think its pretty dark), but dude, the last thing 9E needs is putting up with you on 9E threads.

If ur thing is that you're concerned about your 9E friends still suffering it, give them a call instead.

Back to regular programming...

1. Nobody is gloating, people have asked if it's true.

2. See bolded section. it is what you do on a 6X daily basis to your former coworkers who you now bash as a whole. And cut the crap and don't say you're not bashing, read your last few posts.

and you are so much better than him for shelling out 25k for a zero to hero program, to go to a regional in year 4 of negotiations with a crappy pay rate, just for a quick upgrade.......what have you done to better this industry? watch out from that glass house!
False. All of my flight training (Private, Instrument, Commercial, Multi) was obtained from local mom/pop airport FBOs throughout the country (moved during flight training for school and job). But please, don't let facts get in the way of a good bashing. I didn't come to 9E for a 'quick upgrade.' That would have been you in the timeframe you were hired. When I was hired, there were no new planes, just stagnation.

sorry, I'm not obsessed and need to know every little detail about you, as you have the need to do with your former employer.

That's fair enough. I still find it ironic those who take a paycut at the regional level will point to a LCC versus legacy wage to try and make a point.

Well you should be offended, while XJ and 9L collect their pay increase at class date and you don't until sim date. It's wrong. I did the math on how much it cost me, and it wasn't pretty.

You said on here that you did either the Jet U or ATP course because you didn't have enough time to get hired otherwise......

Because I'm smart enough to know that voting No, would have done nothing to change the situation or outcome we are in, and most likely it would have made it worse. Delta has the resources to play games with 9E as long as they want to get what they want. You know as well as I do the only option at Pinnacle was to vote with your feet, and that's what you did, I however, don't need to do that.

Yes. Not zero to hero, which implies starting with no experience. All of my training experience was with local FBOs, and the RJ course was done after obtaining the Pri/Inst/Comm/ME ratings. Then the RJ course was done, leading to an interview.
