Re: Current info on air north (ramp--> hs748)

I have a better question. n00f1 are you now comfortably sitting in a full time flying position now that the company is hiring from outside? This thread started a while back and will serve as a great example, good or bad, to those who follow.

Re: Info on Lake River, Ontario near James Bay

I've been to Lake River, anyone else? Fast current, narrow and so muddy you can't see the rocks just below the surface. Not the type of place you want to fly into just to say you visited. You want to be paid for your trouble. I don't remember much more than the frame of a building and maybe a shack,...

Re: Current info on air north (ramp--> hs748)

There's a chance n00f1 doesn't like hunting or Germans. If this is the case, he/she should consider remuneration, lifestyle and progression. I'm sorry, I don't think the chance to work the ramp anywhere means anything.
n00f1 try to look a little beyond the obvious, you'll do fine.

Re: Current info on air north (ramp--> hs748)

Air North is a great blah, blah.........Let's look a this a different way. If you spend three years on the ramp and three to five in the right seat will you be able to afford a 500k house in XY. If you want to be mid-thirties sharing an apartment by all means head north. There's very little upside i...

Lets not confuse the problem with the issue. If you wish to terminate your employment for a good reason, seek advice.

Not complaining about training bonds. If one is being used as leverage, you must seek advice. If I was an employer, I would use them also.

Dirtbag operators and their training bonds

When you run into one of these wonderful companies it is imperitive you consult a legal professional before you quit. Someone such as http://www.dismissal.ca/ can offer a wealth of information. Have your opinion of lawyers, but there can be a time when they will be your best friend. Again, you must ...

When heckled and upset he lost his temper and said some racist things. In response, when heckled and upset the audience members in question also said some racist things. To date, no one has addressed this issue. It is regularily tolerated to insult the white race.
Hatred of each other is not OK.
