What's sad is that Nevets is dead on, yet most are blind to it.

Just about every single facet of life contains some form of immorality or whipsaws for money. The sooner you realize that that's not ever going to change and that there's nothing you or I could do to change it the easier life gets. Getting bent out of shape about how Inc does business and letting it affect what you do in your free time will prove nothing but a waste of time. I always hate when I hear people say " If it's so bad quit" but there is a little bit of truth to that statement.

Can we talk about something else?
How about the skywest 175 I saw in Houston.
You guys doing 175 flying out of Houston too? Or is that just part of your ord route structure?

Why do you feel it necessary to come here and do this? Man, let go of the hate.

Are you sure that's not the Mesa one?

It was probably Mesa, since IAH will be their hub/domicile for their E175's. On a related note, they're a few months early but the E175 parking lines have been painted at the 70 gates in SFO.

No but I am smart enough to realize that overall, unions are just as unhelpful as not have gotten a union. They take your money, and generally protect the lazy, incompetent, and the entitled.

You negative nancies may scream the loudest, but I am willing to bet you are in the minority. I've yet to talk to one person (in real life) that has anything seriously negative to say. Just because not everything is perfect does not mean a union is a good idea.

Honestly you whiners should have seen my last job... Wanna talk about needing a union.

Welcome aboard, report back after your first Skrew Skeduling chit show. Lazy, incompetent, and the entitled, you just described an airline pilot. In 6 months you will be whining about the lack of upgrade. Minority, wait till you get to the line, if you do, ask a senior guy which direction things are going, then look in the mirror, you will se the true cause of your ailments. Make no mistake, you are a numerically identified widget, the only sympathy you will ever get from the "company" is for bereavement, they couldn't care less about your kids 1st birthday or your moms cancer(unless you are in Calif, then Kin Care will cover you by law). Wake up, you didn't win the lottery, you are being given the opportunity to be exploited, they need minions to push their smelly broken a$$, RJs around the continent. Ask any reserve with more than 6 months how's it going....dare you. Congrats on the ERJ choice, that seemingly innocent SJS moment on your part, guarantees you of a minimum of 2 years of reserve he11. Go ahead, click over to the standing bid list and watch your seniority on that list slowly march backwards. Bitter, nope after more than a decade with the company, it's an easy observation, you come here and profess to know how it is, but you have no idea, and by the time you figure what's up, you will have a little seniority and a knocked up SKYW F/A girlfriend, so say good bye to that fast trip to the majors! The above is an observed script, it just keeps happening over and over. Enjoy TDY!

You will not hear much on any company property, microphones and video cameras(to document sexual harassment and prevent theft)
The company(and DAL/UAL) will gladly take years of your life at a reduced pay rate, and you will only realize it after a long time, if ever that you have been had. You are in way over your head....
