How's that? I acknowle that I dropped an "s" or that both of our responses were correct, if I added a S to test.
But in the end it really doesn't matter. I'll enjoy my right seat at the airline you wish to work and move on with my life. Enjoy your regional life

Now that we've determined that none of us are English teachers, we can talk about what truly matters. ASA is F*%ked and those that are on the fence about leaving need to pull their head out their &ss and go elseware. You've never had a better opportunity then now to move on. EVERYONE is hiring. If you're not getting called by Delta, so What! Go to a LCC, Cargo, anything. Get another type rating! 10,000 hours means NOTHING if it's all CRJ time.
I'm former ASA, spent 9 years there. Some of the best people in the industry by far. Don't sell yourself short!

Hummm maybe because if they realized that with a small sacrifice they would make more in the long run? 6 months no insurance for your kids, a spouse could always get a job to make it work. Couldn't make it work due to living on the edge, get a loan. All I see is excuses, its as if you are a millennial. Full of excuses and expecting everyone to fell sorry for you...
You can make countless excues as to why they didn't take the job back then. But with the emergence of the LCC's there is no excuse other then just being entitled and lazy. Great you have 15k hours in a jet, what else have you done in your life??? The number of times I flew with someone that felt entitled to a job with a major was astounding. Just because you have some experience X place for X time dosen't entitle you to anything. Unless your regional has a flow, you have nothing at all and are equally qualified to the guy sitting in the right seat next to you.
At this point anyone over 10 years at a regional as a CA is a liability and NOT an asset like they think they are.

None of those have better work rules than ASA and for the IPs at ASA not better pay rates. It's great that you are young and can move at will, but it's not an easy decision for some. I hope everyone makes it out, but to each their own. No reason to **** on someone for their individual decisions.
