I can see it mattering if you need future employers to hear good things about you from Mesa. Or, at least, if you don't want them to hear bad things.

A little pro tip about hr management...they can only say to future employers that you:

1. In fact worked here
2. Did/didn't fail a drug test
3. Was/was not terminated due to poor performance.

It's not the same deal as a personal recommendation that someone might write to a letter.

I left Mesa before my year was up and I got notified of the amount owed within a week after my last day.

They can notify you all they want. It will not hold up in court. That is why pretty much all have given up trying to enforce them.

AS SOMEONE WHO SPENT ALMOST TWO YEARS AT RAH....GO ANYWHERE BUT RAH...

THE CULTURE OF RAH IS NOTHING SHORT OF WALKING IN A NEST OF ANGRY VIPERS.

Seriously, I wouldn't go back to RAH even if it was as a direct entry Captain on 3rd year CA pay.

They can keep their higher pay for the disgusting way that company/management treats its employees.....

Dude, stop acting like you left. You were fired. Still calling off sick and using your travel benefits? You were awful in scheduling, even worse in my right seat. It's a travesty that you are a captain anywhere.

Not paying attention to the drama at all, I just chuckled seeing that.

you completely have the wrong person, dude.

Your "pro tip" is extremely wrong.

I've personally been in a chief pilot's office (not at this airline) listening to one chief tell another chief all about so-and-so's record.

These guys have personal cellphones--it's a small world--never trust that the only info being communicated about you is your PRIA.

Go look up the Boring v. Alaskan Airlines lawsuit (there's a thread about it on here). Long story short, a Mesa pilot whose termination was reversed by Mesa ended up getting fired from Alaskan for not disclosing the termination on the application (even though it was reversed). The court ruled in favor of Alaskan.

Airlines don't ask "is there a termination on your PRIA"--they ask have you ever been terminated (in the last 10 years). Subtle difference, but the court ruled in Alaskans favor because he didn't disclose it.

Go read the Boring v. Alaskan lawsuit and you'll realize you're wrong--there are lots and lots of ways airlines figure out everything there is to know about you, and PRIA is worthless.

It's Alaska not Alaskan
