Jay, Have fun with your 13 year upgrade and complete stagnation, douche.

Well, it came off harsher than I intended. Your previous post just seemed a bit "braggy" to be one of the, if not the lowest paying airbus jobs in the country, that's all. Disregard, and carry on.

Wasn’t intended to be "braggy", but The prune Juice drinker was asking why we aren’t embarrassed working for Spirit!, just wanted to tell him how I felt, Jay jump to it with a different intention...

But in any case:

I don’t really thing we have the lowest Bus rates in the industry.

I’m yr 5 FO $83/hr UG time 5yr,

JB $92 UG 5yr some 10 AC's deferred delivery but still a great place for those who like it there.,
F9 $82 reducing the fleet future unknown,
VX $82 UG 3yr getting planes, spending money, zero revenue for 5 yrs.
G4 $83 UG 5yr Not buses, but same clients.
UA/CO $82 UG 15+yr, and everything its a little complicated there.
US $75 UG 14yr, Another complicated place to work, about to get very complicated
DL $106 UG 13yr, Great place.

And then SW, and you and I know we are all under pay if we compare.

So after all, Spirit isn’t a bad place, with growth planned, checks keep showing up, for the most part we can tweak the schedules to our liking, and not so bad work rules, drive to work, bla bla.

Carrying on, NP.

Very good. And FYI, I've got a buddy at AT. senior FO. With the latest 717 news, he's had enough, and wants to apply here when we open up. I was doing some back if the napkin math, and unless I screwed it up, a new-hire here could upgrade in between years 7 & 8. Not counting the possible 717s

I have the last 3 days of may off on my line and by using 1 week vacation in June, I got the first 22 days off. 25 days in a row FTW! Thus my avatar. "I did nothing today and still got paid"
