I would hope that surviving as a Colgan flight attendant for a few years (and enjoying it) would prepare me for the worst. I've commuted, I've sat ready reserve for 5 days a week 12 hours at a time without being called and of course I was furloughed. Skywest has GOT to be a step up from that experience.

I've done the 8-5 thing as an engineer and obviously made WAY more than an SKW FO. I've flight instructed, flown charter, and flown corporate. I was a CA on a jet before coming to SKW. I've been here for almost 4 years, still an FO. You know what? It's not a bad job. I get a lot of time off, most of the folks I fly with are pleasant, and the CCBs are happily quite uncommon. He's a failure in his own mind, and derives pleasure from crapping all over everybody else. Put him on ignore as I have. He's a trivial failure, not worthy of your time. Most of us have or will have put people like this in the rear view mirror at some point in our lives.

If there's anything I can do for you (or anybody else) on here to answer any questions you have, please feel free to send me a PM. I'd be happy to help however I can. Good luck with your next step!

Thanks buddy. I'll be sure to seek out your counsel for all my future financial endeavors. You should send me your name and base so we can discuss it.

Poor WRX,
Your soul crushing will begin at around year 6. Enjoy it while you can, ask around about the ATL domicile or any of the others that were yanked out from under crews, your domicile is just a keystroke away from being downsized. If SKYW downsizes your elusive upgrade will disappear, just like your Frontier job. Cheap shot, yeah but you asked for it, sorry, not....I have seen your type come and go, and you will go back to being an engineer, dwelling in your cubicle crunching numbers ect. Wow you really do sound like a mini Genny Lee.

So you don't refute it?

skypilot35

Nope. Your numbers are correct, your assumptions are not. How long have you been a FA?

That is Navy pilot. And yes, I was grateful.

Never,
But don't let that stop your dooshieness, FNG. Anybody who has to have "pilot" in their screen name, screams bag of hammers....

Nice. You do realize that all the slanderous cynicism you spew out in supposed anonymity (we know you) is not going to compensate for your inadequacies in life or in the airplane. Just because you couldn't make it to the cockpit, doesn't mean you can't serve pretzels with the best of them. Now, grab me a water when you're done telling the pax about the O2 masks.

Fixed it for you. I know the reading / writing program wasn't that great at the high school you graduated from. No worries. Where's my water?
