Agree but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Some people are very happy at other places too. I do know people at Skywest who are not impressed FWIW. All i am saying is you can't come out of the gate swinging saying they are the best.

How can you claim that another individual has an "awesome QoL" if that person isn't you? Very presumptuous and naive of you.

I agree, the best by far no. I know whiskey and Compass sound like good places to work as well. There is alot more planning for your career than just picking the best regional as far as schedules. Are they going to be around, alot of 50 seaters, junior bases and such.

I wasn't saying don't go there because the qol sucks. I have no idea what it's like at PSA. I'm saying don't go there on principle.

Because our scheduling language allows for good QoL...I am 70% in my base, so pretty junior.

If the most junior line holder has bad QoL, it's his fault.

How presumptuous and naive for you to think you know what you're talking about.

That's fine, but it doesn't belong in this thread.

Yes it does, it belongs everywhere on these forums. Everyone who considers PSA should be aware of how they're viewed by actual members of the industry. I would even go as far as to say it can affect QOL of a pilot being negatively viewed by other pilots and is thread relevant in addition to forum relevant.

I have yet to meet anyone IN PERSON(not on this forum) that has viewed me in a negative light.

Even if it does happen....which it never will because they aren't anonymous behind a keyboard. What are they gonna do? Call me a name?

It doesn't affect QoL and to tell a perspective hire that QoL is bad because "other pilots might not like you" is disingenuous at best and not keeping up with the purpose of this thread.

If the undercutting airlines can't staff it improves all our qol including perspective new hires. It is entirely relevant to this thread.
