Colgan life

I hope you guys aren't thinking of upgrading in a year or two. After SLI upgrade will look more like 3-4yrs. There's 3-5yr Fo's chopping at the bit for that 4th stripe on the 9e side. Many Im sure will transfer to Q maybe even the Saab.

The good news is that the FO pay scale is now livable enough to tolerate a 4+ year upgrade.

No offense, but how dumb do you think we are? Why would you assume that we're all looking for some miracle upgrade? Read my post a page or two back. The captain in my interview took 4 years to upgrade in the Q. I can't see any reason to believe that number would decrease now that it's a list of thousands instead of hundreds. Even with the Q options remaining I think 4 years is where you set the over/under. I know there's a lot of foolish idealism by newbies here, but I can speak for myself at least when I say that just because this is my first 121 gig doesn't mean I haven't been around the block enough to know how it works. I think upgrade times everywhere will be on the way down over the next 5 years, but name any place with a 2 year upgrade these days. It doesn't exist.

Don't worry about him, he is negative in every post that he has. He is a FO that has been there for a while and apparently knows everything. Seems seniority isn't the only thing he thinks he has up on us.

He hasn't been there for a while. If you read his previous posts, you will be surprised about what he had to say about Colgan. He posted a bunch of negative stuff about Colgan, calling it "bottom feeder" and the next "Mesa". A month later he applies and gets hired. I am curious to know what he said at the interview when asked "Why do you want for Colgan?".
