They could literally announce free decaf coffee for all pilots and you would be on here "See guys! I told you. You have to trust the company!!" It was a joke that you were on here before the TA vote sucking the company off and it's even worse now.

We'll circle back around to these posts when they decide to start rolling out announcements.

Until there is an *official* announcement I will continue to call them rumors because things can change.

Carry on.

There are many worse places to fly for than OO. I don't think most pilots dream about staying at any regional longer than required. Get the type ratings, learn well as an FO, upgrade asap, get turbine PIC and crew experience, and move on to the big leagues, or good corporate gig with experience. Whatever it takes.

Just ignore Mowgli65. Look at his post history. 100% negative. SkyWest may not be perfect, but it's far from the worst place. It might not be the best choice for everyone, but it's the best choice for many.

I agree. I'm honestly getting sick and tired of all the belly-aching bull**** people keep slinging out about OO. Sure, it has it's issues like everyone else, but one thing is certain. It provides a ton of flying for everyone who wants it. More flying means faster progress, flight time accumulation, upgrade. Checking the boxes so pilots can throw the apps out to the majors. I've flown part 91, 135, and now this. In a year and half as a "newb" FO, I've made more money with this company than any other operation I've flown for. This is also the first and only company I'vd flown for that's paid me a bonus. The ones I hear whining and crying on here are usually ones who were offered this gig right after flight instructing in 172s or Pipers. The ones who racked up hundreds or thousands of hours flying freight around all hours of the night in bad weather by themselves don't seem to mind flying 85-90 hours a month mostly during the day with 16-18 days off a month. It's all perspective. Does OO give you the flying you supposedly desired when you wanted this job? If the answer is yes, then you're in the best place for now. Get it and move on. Simple as that.
