Hire until you fire, but this is starting to get obscene.

Interviewed few weeks ago... There was Crm, tech and hr but no sim... The gouges online are pretty accurate.
This honestly has nothing to do with "Utah". The reason you end up having schedules like this is because that is how all of SkyWest's partners schedule the flights. They have early departures on regional aircraft into hubs so that the regional aircraft can feed mainline's planes in the hub. Works the same with the night flights, they want the regional aircraft moving people out of the hub into outstations at night so they can leave their planes at the hub.

We lost 1 guy in training. Went to Frontier. Amazingly enough, 15 months later, nearly my entire new hire class is still at OO.

I'm sure you can find one big difference between when you and I were hired and what's happening today. I'm just glad we are trying to get ahead of the attrition but I don't think we will win that battle.

Q for the commuters here.
How many flights do you give yourself to get to work on time?
Say weather is fine.
2? 3? 1?

I usually give my self twoflights. Where I live there are 3 flights that get into my base early in the day. On Saturdays I usually give myself 1 flight as the schedule on Delta is so reduced. I have never had any commuting issues since I have been here.

Not sure. I just compare seniority lists each Friday and the last one had a bunch of people listed as TRG. From what I can tell 5 from the 9/28 class and 2 from 10/26. According to my numbers we lost 14 out of the 62 hires for the 9/28 class so far. (almost 25%)
