You and "many others", tell us all about you adventures as a Navy Seal and how you saved the world with your awesome ninja like skills. Too bad you can neither spell that well, nor understand a metaphor, but that's OK. BTW being a Mall Security guard before SKYW is ok, but don't think that that was saving the world for democracy, OTH, I hear the Blue Light Specials were crazy.
You aren't that amusing, actually kind of pathetic.

 

You do understand they were telling you to go to one of the places in SLC that do SKYW sim prep and come back, don't you?

 

Yes sir I do. I knew what was coming and should have been prepped accordingly. There were no surprises, I shoulda passed.

 

Good time for a rethink, if you really want to do this or not. Airline flying isn't really flying, its an endurance test, you either like the lifestyle or you hate it. But make no mistake, its not really flying, its moving people with an airplane. Like aerial application is putting chemicals on crops, you use a plane to put said chemicals on the crops. If you don't like being on the road, sleeping in hotels and having a wildly variable schedule airline flying might not be for you. Only you can decide.

 

Wrong branch ace, but I wouldn't expect someone of your "caliber" to do any research before pecking away at his keyboard. I am curious though why a 15 year FA would burden themselves with typing so much garbage on the forums.

Im on reserve so I have an excuse.

2 from A to D please!

 

Just my two cents...I've been here over 7 years and still an FO. I still really enjoy my job. Maybe it's the way I'm wired or maybe it's the fact that I sat in a cubicle for two and half years, I don't know. I love that I don't ever dread going to work. Skywest is a good company, not perfect though. I fly with a bunch of great captains and occasionally a not so great one.

CCB is a bit overdramatic. A lot of this job (as with any job) is your attitude. It's up to you if you are miserable or happy. Good on the guys that figured out it wasn't for them and moved on.

A little advice to new hires...do everything you can to not commute. I suggest biting the bullet and just moving to a junior domicile. Your quality of life will improve more quickly and when upgrade comes around (I know, could be a while) chances are that domicile will also be junior for captains.

 

Whhooo,
Still, not impressed, you don't ask for people to be moved that's between the PIC and F/A. But I wouldn't expect you to understand the Chain of Command thing, being a mall security guard in the past. Thank you for keeping the mall safe from the legions of kids on skateboards. Do you still have your whistle?

 

You will do great. Lesson for other potential applicants; don't be intimidated, do invest in the sim prep.

 

Ha. I just spit coffee all over. But seriously, why do you wear the blazer with 2 stripes? Still doesn't make you a pilot.

 

Watch out! If you have to remind everyone that you're in charge, you're either not really in charge or aren't very good at it.
