he he...so you admit you live in mommas basement and will say things on here that you won't say to someone's face
But in all seriousness, you misunderstood my post. I was talking about hiring mainly. I just threw the jumpseat in there to show the guy has real balls if he says to my face before asking for a ride rather than hiding on here, and in that case I'm happy to take him! He will be in for an earful and a dose of reality though by the time we get to the destination! So what I'm saying is I'd rather fly with (either as a fellow employee, or on my jumpseat) someone who has the balls to say it to my face, rather than some pansy like Sooner and others who will only say it from a computer behind a false name.

There was one particular FO (who was fired, and then the union got his job back) who was very vocal and talked along those lines like you are saying. Maybe I was confused for him.
I really think you are into S&M with as many generally negative comments you enjoy being hurled your way. I was speaking of OUsoooner and the sorts, people from OTHER airlines saying "vote no" not to stick stick it to the man, but in the hopes they would get our airframes hence growth when we shut down. Not 9e FO's complaining that 9e captains haven't moved on for whatever reason. And for the anal retentives out there, don't give me the "they are Delta's airplanes" lecture. It's old.

Thank you so much for screwing over every other regional pilot out there and taking a big lead in the race to the bottom.
Because of you certain mainlines are all ready asking regionals to "be in line with pinnacle costs".

1. The Mainline company always bluffs, nothing they say is true, especially if they say they are going to shut you down.
2. Just vote No.
3. Live happily ever after.

Shy... On my commute to/from work I finished up the movie "black hawk down". I can't seem to shake the similarity of "shyguy" on apc and "over watch" in the movie.
What comes to mind (more to the point) is a college guy going to a HS prom. Move on, and then literally move on. Right now you are dragging tail, and your "real' name has made the rounds. Honestly, you are only harming yourself with continued 9E posts. You are ticking off about 2K folks, and most know who you are. Talking negative grows the negative mindset, and the "small network" has close connections.
I know the infant keeps you awake, but research a 529 instead of the pos/neg/POST Hindsight game at this point. If you loved VA, you wouldn't be playing "over watch for 9E".

I'd make the same argument to your face or any others for that reason. Sadly the internet hasnt advanced far enough to make that happen.. sort of. It is what it is. Everyones entitles to their opinion. Eagle yes voters are quickly finding out the company was bluffing to no end during negotiations. I think Pinnacle yes voters will find the same is true down the road.
