Re: Road trip help. Thunder Bay and Winnipeg operators.
It would be a good informative post, if people used the opportunity to name the "good" operators out there. Where can low time guys get a start? Where should you go on the road trip? I am considering a road trip around the same time. Let me know how it goes if you go before me. Glorifieddriver, I d...

Re: WestJet Mainline/Encore Hiring pool
Mr. North, I have no problem with anyone professing their love for anyone or anything or standing up for what they believe in! It's when someone directly insults people for making decisions they make for whatever reason they make them, and turns around and does the EXACT same thing they are insultin...

Re: WestJet Mainline/Encore Hiring pool
I have no dog in this hunt, so we are clear. However, threatening to 'out' another user is not cool. What is cool is the tropical vacation you can go on for the next two weeks, while thinking about why we all really, really try hard to follow the forum rules.

Re: Our Trip on Westjet..??
Your seats are not assigned until you check in, maximum 24 hours before the flight. If you look at the seat selection tool now only those seats for which passengers have paid to select them will show as occupied. So therefore, if all the aisles and windows were paid for, then it's completely possib...

Re: AND THIS IS WHY WE HAVE BONDS!!!
It is a small and insignificant amount of money for a company who's gross revenue measures in the millions or tens of millions of dollars. It would be like $200 to one of us.... yeah it sucks, but it's not going to kill us. If you found that you were losing $200 all of the time... maybe you'd spend...

Esp803,
My beef is for people who lack morals and respect. It's not small insignificant money we are talking about here. Ask anyone to immediately cough up 1/2 the cost of a CPL-MIFR tomorrow with nothing in return and see how they respond to you.

ESP803,
If the wage was acceptable to him last week, it should be this week after the company spent the money to train him, or pay them back for their costs. It's simple really. You want respect, give respect.

Re: AND THIS IS WHY WE HAVE BONDS!!!
Iflyforpie,
If this company paid that wage and, as you suggest, consider training a cost of doing business, they would have my respect. I highly doubt they would offer both and prove consistently that they won't. Poaching is as morally corrupt as paying a low wage.

Re: Albatross BE20 FO
Pointy engine, Look at the bigger picture! Ask yourself "why can they pay this higher wage? Because they didn't foot the $20k training costs. And for that, the f/o makes an extra 11k or so. So who's benefitting here, and who's getting screwed? BL http://www.avcanada.ca/forums2/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=9...
