Default Honestly I'm tired of hearing it.....

This whole TSA/GoJet is starting to get a little out of control. First, I honestly feel for you guys/gals at TSA and understand the history behind GJ. We all have heard it over and over in the threads. But what is YOUR MEC doing about it?? Stickers are pretty but don't do a dam thing.

Me and other regional pilots want to know, what can we do to help????

I know people (myself included) that would have no problem dropping 5,10,15, or even 20 dollars to help contribute to your cause. For more legal action and such. Not only would it benefit you but us in the long run.

I'm tired of hearing finger pointing. YES, I know that GJ pilots are considered scabs to most TSA guys/gals and others but the B!tchin' needs to be over and action needs to be taken.

Soooo...you were so tired of hearing about the TSA/GJ stuff that you started another thread about not wanting to hear about the TSA/GJ stuff? Does not compute...

If you got nothing positive to add, shut your mouth. Da Magic is offering support to those of us at TSA and you have no right to start an argument just for the sake of arguing.

Da Magic: Thank you for your vote of confidence and offering monetary support. Hopefully the MEC will find a way for all of us to start doing something as opposed to just talking about doing something. If I hear something, I will let you know.

THEN GET OFF THE DAMN FORUM. Then you won't have to see it.

BTW, thanks for your offer of $15 bucks. You're so thoughtful.

You're probably going to see some action soon.

Chill out homie, Da Magic is trying to do something positive for us and you are treating him like he just spit in your face. If he wants to help, let him. But like I said five minutes ago: If you got nothing positive or beneficial to add, please, be quiet.

Three simple steps all of us can take.

1) If you get a mainline job, or are flying mainline, spread the word. It is amazing how many GoJet pilots are moving on to bigger and better things. This is unacceptable and must end.
2)If you are an alumni of a flight school, a freight company, military, whatever, make sure you spend some time telling others why it is worth holding out for certain airlines.
3) Contrary to the original post, we need to keep up this discussion because it reinforces our point: pilots that put themselves over other pilots will have to face their peers.

The regional jet career is no longer a 2 year stepping stone; time to make sure each GoJet pilot is ASHAMED of who he/she is for the next 5-10 years.

u guys really need to learn to worry about yourself and not kill each other. feel free to insult me by my statement. but if your smart you will realize it really doesnt matter. and dont say that it does because if you think it does and u cant do anything about it. then it still....doesnt matter
