Not bad considering I only worked about 50 hours a month jackass. And now I'm flying for the airlines becuz I had CMA on my resume...but who cares what the airlines think of CMA...what matters is what 'Suckers' like you think. Fool.

to be honest this is the first time i've heard that CMA is ass...

I always thought of them, borek, and others being a wonderful place to work, and definately a place that airlines like ACA regard highly ...

And what is with that $20 500 bond for the Do328 you dont even make that in a year when you consider thestarting wage 22500 gross, whats that after taxes 15000. flippin burgers pays you better. And you still get to wear a hat. So what if it is an Airline the owners are getting rich off you poor suckers for thinking its a great place to work and not thinking of it as a career cause honestly how the hell can one person live off that salary let alone a family, and coinsidently your below the canadian poverty line in your area. But hey if your happy.

I am happy Chief, thank you for your concern. Unfortuneatly you don't sound very happy and there's not much advice I can give you. It appears you are a very simple man, with simplified arguments and comparisons....u are having a hard time seeing the big picture. Keep plugging away on that 152, study hard, and maybe consult the spirits a few more times, but make sure you ask the right questions. [/quote]

I am not trying to side with anyone, but rezassasain has a point where he talks about making a living in some of these places. Don't get me wrong, I'd go to any of them in an instant...but I don't have kids and wife with me to drag along....luckly, not yet. But I think some of you are forgeting, that NOT everyone is starting this career at 18, but at a much later stage....

now, I'll let you boys continue with your testosteron-fueled conversation :lol:
