I agree with the second part but it has nothing to do with egos. People want to know about hiring mins and they are different depending on your background so yes, it does matter what college you went to. Not everyone wants to build the hours the hard way....so you go to a big school, get through the program and get an interview. But like you said, once we are in.....we are all on the same team.

It doesn't matter what school you went to, unless it's Riddle. Then you're just gonna get crap every day till you learn to lie where you came from !

I agree again that the days of 250 hour fo's are done....for now because they will be back, it is all about timing. Again the school you go to has nothing to do with getting a job...the pilot does that....the school just helps with the interview, if you are not qualified, you most likely will not get hired. Just wait until you get to the airlines.....you will not want to work and you will most likely not do anything you are not required to do.....just the way things work especially as an fo
what the heck does that mean?

Sounds like he should have gone somewhere else. It's too bad we hired some tools with attitudes like that.

can scheduling call me...say today...and change my reserve schedule...say..starting tomorrow...for the month of Sept. from P1 to P2? this will completely screw me on something very important that I have had scehduled now for several weeks because I will not be able to make the commute this coming Friday to get back in time. can they legally swap me around like that with such short notice after I had already been awarded P1?
Report back if you get an answer.

RR credits min day (four hours, unless of course you fly more than that) plus at least 8 hours of per diem. You can volunteer for RR by calling scheduling at least a day in advance. Volunteering for AMRR is sometimes a good technique for commuters, but keep in mind they can assign you flights that arrive later than your original 8 hr duty period.
