This is a forum to educate prospective pilots about the career and for current pilots to discuss (complain) about the career.

Seems like swearing and profanity is a pretty good training syllabus for anyone wanting to get in this career.

Vagabond....if you only knew what the conversation up front is most of the time.

 

Would just be another Plane for Miami Air to replace.

Another pilot got put on the Sick Time Donation List yesterday. I think that brings the total up to 7 or 8?

 

Remember guys to donate your sick time before you quit. Don't let this garbage company have it back

 

Things that make you go hmmm.

More reasons not to come to Spirit

13. Pass riding is severely lacking. Regionals have better bennies than we do. No Delta, No American, No United. Good luck non-raving on our limited route structure with consistently full flights. We do have Air Swahili though. Big perk
14. We have about 5 -7 different passwords to remember. Company IT is pathetic. Our company employee website doesn't even work and hasn't worked the last 3 years. No plans to fix it.
15. Worst Moral ever. Its hard to come to work anymore. Everyone is miserable
16. Company continues to willfully violate contract. We have to take it and grieve it, then wait months if not years for a resolution. No respect
17. No AQP. Recurrent here is checkmark training. Its rare to learn anything that would be useful in a real life emergency. Most airlines have moved to AQP, but Spirit doesn't even have it on the radar.
18. YES I'm on number 18 and more to come- DO NOT COME HERE!

 

That's about the biggest load. I've NEVER met anyone here who was unpleasant and 'miserable' as you speak to the point where I don't want to come to work. I actually enjoy coming to work with my peers here and that's more so than any other company I've been at.

 

..........RM??

 

It's getting hard for me to get excited about coming to work. I'd be willing to bet it's more than you think. Moral is low no doubt about it.

 

Morale is very low...morals, on the other hand, are fine (at least mine are, except when they aren't ).
