Regionals with sign-on bonuses..?
 
So far I have Silver Airways, Republic and AE as the regionals offering sign-on bonuses varying from $5k-$6k. Are there others out there that I am missing?

I think "piedmont" did not fulfill the length requirement to post. Also, yes, Piedmont offers 5k

Yeah and a garbage man deals with garbage for minimum wage every day.

There are crap jobs everywhere, nobody is forcing you to work there.

Not to nit pick but you better do a lil research on what garbage men make. I got a buddy that's a garbage man back home and he makes about 2x what I make and I'm an open time wh.re at awac.

Actually a "garbage man" is reported to make an average income of between $33,000 and $43,000 per year, with minimal training requirement, which is NOT minimum wage by a far shot.

Just curious... Have you ever had a full time job working outside?

Yes I have, in northern Minnesota no less. However, this thread and my comment was not about that, nor was I making any statement about whether that average wage was either too high or too low, only responding to the inaccurate statement that a "garbage man" is paid minimum wage.

Apparently, even "Garbage Men" are smart enough not to work for the low wages that regional pilots work for - but that is just my opinion, your opinion may be different.:D

BTW - I have nothing against either Garbage Men or Pilots!
