just remember you are a pilot and you should not be satisfied with the current situation anywhere. expect higher pay, more days off, and overall better treatment. complain about it if you are not fully satisfied. and if you are satisfied, complain because it still should be better. that doesnt make you a bad employee, it makes you an employee who realizes his or her value as a professional pilot

Remember i never said i was satisfied with what we have, thats why we haven't accepted a pitiful contract. Of course i want a better contract. who wouldn't want more days off, more money, and a better qol. all i can say is i like it here at pinnacle, and if they try and give us a bad contract they will get my NO vote.

I have some questions regarding Pinnacle new hire.

What base (domicile) are they sending the new hire at this moment?

How does the Hotel situation during training in MEM work? Are you given a room the first day in Class or is all that arranged before starting training?

Is the Sim training done with Flight Safety instructors or Company instructors?

how many free days are the new hired (allready on IOE) getting per month?

Any base you want.

300 bucks a week, double occupancy, the company will fly you down here and give you a hotel whenever you want, you just have to tell them and make arrangements.

Sim training is done at flight safety with pinnacle instructors. We have bought all the time in 3 of the sims here in memphis, and they are also sending people to clt and stl for sim training.

10 days off min,, and that is all you will get.
