That's amazing. How can policies like that continue when the industry is getting so skosh for new hire applicants? Granted, I haven't been overly impressed by regional unions (although it would appear better to have one than a pseudo-Union like Skywest has) but you'd think the market alone would correct these practices. Is Skywest management in denial, or am I naive?Originally Posted by rickair7777
I got displaced once, bid only for the other jet in that base. They kept telling me to bid for another base (if you bid for it, it's voluntary). I never did, so at the end they just flowed a few more jets in and let me (and a couple others) stay on a different airframe. They can certainly be manipulative when it comes time to shuffle pilots at the lowest cost.
