Who will be on reserve, well forever. Enjoy being the ragdoll playtoy for the SS underlings, they get off on telling crybaby pilots what to do....
Anybody dumb enough to bid/choose the ERJ for a newhire position will regret it for a long time. So instead of being on the CRJ hooptie and getting a line quicker the SJS victim will be in the unenviable position of being the SS playtoy for a long time.

I think he is referring to ERJ SFO specifically, which, is significantly more senior than ORD in both airplanes.

And when they start sliding backwards because the current senior guys start looking at the lines, and thinking, hmmmmn, them lines look pretty tasty, think I will get me some, and bid the ERJ. This is how it has been at SKYW, if not every airline out there when a new airframe hits the certificate. Junior guys go whoohoo! Instant seniority, right up to the point where the guys who have been around awhile and have seen how SKYW operates, wait and see how it shapes up.
Reading how the "new guys" have all these "new" ideas on how to revamp upgrades and "fix" the problem(them being junior), and redesign the industry. Sorry sport, six months ain't nothin" I have farts that last longer, this is an endurance game, and if .005% of the stuff posted here and on other forums are what ya'all truly believe, you are in the perfect position to have the wool pulled right down over your eyes, and the ball gag cinched up nice and tight, just like it has been for the last 2 generations of pilots. The espousing of Ayn Rand and "Free Market Economics" makes Jonny O. ,Hulas and J.Smallsack as well as the rest of the industry execs, get mini-chubbies.

This would be one of those farts you are referring to. Your posts stink, like your attitude, both of which continually repeat themselves. Just because you're paid to fly doesn't make you a professional.

Just like your screen name, who cares what you think. You spend 6 months in the industry and are an instant veteran with all the answers and solutions. Newsflash Violet, while you think you are a delicate snowflake, unique and different than every other one, you follow a entirely predictable pattern, pattern stupidity. But that's OK, you like many are just flashes in the pan, you will be working at Homer Depot or some other place that your expensive "Aviation Degree" will qualify you for, shortly. You don't like my posts because they taint your fantasy, guess what your fantasy is a nightmare, this industry will take your hopes and dreams, place them in a burlap bag along with a cinder block, drop them in the local pond and drown them like unwanted kittens. Now what was your solution for the upgrade question again....

I'm not sure why anyone would bid sfo erj as a new hire. Pretty sure TG himself said they will bump junior guys out of base if they have to to make room for Brasilia transitions in the "Q & A"on swol. Or was that just my eyes fooling me??
