As a very new guy I feel like there have just been more excuses made for this place than actual credible positive things.
Who else here has been shouted at by a guy in Texas. Thought I was going to get mobbed myself..

​​​​​​Never in a million years did this happen at the regional not that's that better. I. Just say legit asking if this is any better and if there is any value here?

Legit questions not sarcasm. ( for once)

dude get lost. Go work for delta or something.

Going to be a long hard career for you here at Spirit.

Time to update those applications, bud. You're going to medical out with this stress.

You sound very unsure/afraid for your future.
Just out of curiosity, what made you come to Spirit in the first place. Since you're new, it hasn't been long since you had certainly been asked "why Spirit?". I'm curious what your answer was.
I'm wonder if you quickly forgot your reasons for leaving your regional for Spirit, or if you maybe didn't do your homework and didn't truly know the airline you were quiting your job to join.
If you could snap your fingers and be back at your regional, would you?

You guys forget that this guy didn’t enter the industry in the 9/11 world, when you needed to fly canceled bank checks for four thousand hours and a space shuttle type rating to get a crappy turboprop job.

He didn’t stagnate during the age 65 years.

He didn’t get furloughed in 2008.

Probably never knew airlines life before KCM and phone apps and social media spewing every last little gory detail of every thing that ever happened.

If I were him, I’d probably think this was a really big deal too.

It’s so true. Flew with a guy, pre covid, who was upset that he wasn’t going to be a line holding, home based, Airbus CA inside of 4 years…(before he even turned 30)

I remember thinking if he even realizes how good the industry is now, compared to years past, to even make a statement like that. Sometimes ignorance is bliss.

BUT don’t try and tell someone who began their airline career in the last 5 years how much better it is now. Haha.

So you did get my resume.

It's always something. Pre 9/11 had an FO who got hired at 500 hours legit *****ing to me that the flight case the company gave new hires wasn't as big as he'd like. I told him as politely as I could that every CA currently on property paid for their own hotel during training and only 6 months before I was hired paid 5 figures for their own type. So be careful who and what you're *****ing about.

Nothing ever changes.
