According to lifers anyway. Mainline profit sharing is actual money, but the guys here think we have it good Being a lifer is a mentality, don't be a lifer wherever you are. P.S. If you want someone to blame, look in the mirror, and then at the widebody CA who thinks that "stews" think he is cool because he has a iPhone holster, next to his sunglasses case on his belt. |

Nothing riles the sheeple like a little furlough talk, followed by streeting a few hundred new guys. When you get(if) to the majors, the old senior captain you will be sitting next to is potentially your worst enemy. Mainline senior guys have been skrewing the junior guys since Orville scheduled Wilbur to fly on his day off.

A year on reserve? Is that the ERJ? I thought the new hires were getting CRJs and flying quite a bit. I've been leaning toward SKW, but I definitely don't want to commute to Chicago or Detroit to sit reserve for a year. Ugh.

Can you (potentially) make more working in the E175 or CRJ? (Within the first 1-2 years)
If right out of training and the difference in hourly pay is considered negligible. -Basically, if you want to fly and pick up work. Should've asked this question earlier, been considering everything else. Thanks all, happy new year! |
I'll be joining y'all in one of the next classes for the erj. Stoked to start the new year this way!
Would anyone who went thru the erj as a new hire kind pm'ing me please. |
