But that would require talking to TC. He's a senior FO who thinks he's god of the company and talks down to everyone. I doubt he'll be very helpful if you actually call him. I haven't met a bigger jerk at this company yet.

Glad I'm not the only one that had a similar experience.

Hey guys, I was offered a position! either the ERJ (Dec 28th class) or CRJ (Dec 29th class)
I live in Sacramento, and heard that the ERJ is opening an SFO base. Would it be wise to just avoid the ERJ though? thinking i would be eternally Reserve out of ORD.
Do you guys think the CRJ might be quicker in pulling a line out of either SFO or FAT?
As much as I would like to fly the ERJ, the CRJ looks like it might provide better QoL.
What do you guys think?
Either way, looking forward to joining the team!

The 10 people ahead of me in my domicile were in the new hire class before me though. I'd be about 25 spots senior company wide if I managed to take a class a week earlier. There's also a lot to be said for just that one day of seniority.

So I may be totally off base with this prediction because the airline industry is notoriously unpredictable but.. A lot of current FOs aren't bidding over to the E175 due to loss of Delta benefits and lack of domiciles. It seems to me like if there's a Delta contract in the future a lot of FOs wouldn't have any reason to stay on the CRJ when they could go over to the E175 and get a (very small) pay raise. I'd be nervous if I were really junior on the E175 in SFO with a bunch of senior CRJ FOs in SFO, LAX and FAT who would potentially knock me way down if a Delta contract shows up. There could be massive growth on the plane and massive attrition which would make it not matter, but to me it seems like a roll of the dice. You could get stuck at the bottom for years.

Commuting is also a problem for Ejet guys because they cannot even so much as jumpseat on any delta (even SKW) operated flight...

What's the word on how long it would take to hold a line on the CRJ at ORD these days?
