Hey CPL,

Good for you, I'm glad you feel important as PIC, now......go F*&k your hat.
The guy is happy he got the call from JAZZ and so was I when I received my phone call. Its a great company to work for and you don't need to hijack his thread with your condescending sentiments.

Just had to get that off my chest,

No you dont make more. EI caps out at 1600 minus the 100 or so you lose to tax. Sorry but i make mor than that by quite a bit. Besides I get to travel the world for free, retire on a pension, have good benefit plan. But I guess you have all that too. Oh yeah I am heading home tomorrow for 8 days off. But I hope you like your present job.

Pretty sure when he said EU he was referring to flying overseas (Europe), not being on unemployment.

Skyhigh - again, congratulations and best of luck.

Shortbus - I believe that chief was making a joke. The implication was that the poster was not actually a pilot overseas, but in fact a member of our society receiving the benefits given to those who find themselves out of work. The joke was quite funny.

New CPL - I would tend to agree with Chief as to your present employment situation. Now have a nice day and goodbye.

Santi, thanks for taking the time to come on here and explain someone else's words to me, maybe you should read chief's post above yours. Really don't think he was making a joke, but regardless, I will sleep better tonight knowing your views on the subject. Thanks for coming out champ!

Hmmm .. in the future?! .. Im sure we'll all have Captain postions in the "future" .. Lots of things will happen in the "future".

Whats it like walking around with your nose so high in the air? .. neck getting sore?! ..

Been awhile since I was on this forum...

Shortbus -

Didn't mean to offend, sometimes a thought on a post looks different than the one in me head. Seeya

Anyway, I have to say something about the NewCPL message, and that is that he's not considering the fact that skyhigh will get to live in the best country in the world, which is Canada... what I wouldn't give to get a job in an airline back home. I love my job right now, and I can't complain, but I do miss Canada.
Cheers, and congrats,
DNB
