If a given person is actually happy (rare), then they normally have someone b!tching at them.

Take a look around!
You're right - a lot of people complain and pilots will complain no matter how good they have it! I guess my point is that Colgan guys ***** about not getting paid correctly month in and month out, having to do part 91 repos on top of their 121 flying, poor treatment by the management, etc.

People at my company ***** about only having 14 days off with 80 hours credit, payroll shorting them 8 minutes of pay last month, and having cockpits that aren't super clean.

It's not exactly on the same level of bitching-ness IMO.

Well, I just have to chime in. I'm sick of hearing monkey-face bash Colgan relentlessly with his dumbarse BS.

First, I don't love it here. The pay's not great and they do have their problems. However, in a year and a half I've done one pt 91 repo, my paycheck has never been wrong (and I'm meticulous about checking it), I've never even heard of anyone sleeping in a hangar.

We do have our problems, FO attrition is high and, therefore, they call you alot on your days off and extend us quite a bit on our last days. But, its not that bad.

Good luck to the new guys. Send me a PM if you'd like the inside scoop on Colgan.
