Also some of your posts are about TSA-PSA but most are about Spirit and you don't even work there. What a little B/t(h you are....
Aww do you kiss your mommy with those lips? Easy to sit behind a keyboard and call someone a "little b%*^+". Did I hurt your feeling by calling your training department POOP? Aww don't be upset little man, it will all be okay.

Sure, some CAs have their own techniques and methods they like, it’s how every 121 airline is. You expect the CAs at AA and DL to be different?

The oral is literally a handout with a majority of the questions written down for you. There is a published oral study guide, limitations and memory items. How do people fail this IF they actually prepare?

And as others have said, they tell you to know flows before training. Doesn’t “flow,” oh well. Cooperate and graduate. Those are the same flows we all learned.

Personal responsibility goes a long way
Honestly, you sound like one of the lame @22 “training” department people. Why not just do it like Compass and have new hires do it online at home and eliminate the instructors that don’t instruct

Doesn't take a rocket scientist (which you're obviously not) to figure out where I work.
Don't waste your breath arguing with him. He knows the training is below par.

There is that responsibility I was talking about. This definetly isn’t a spoon fed course so best of luck finding one as you continue your career.

Yeah you're right, I do know it and I also need to relax a little. it just bugs me when people who are fresh to the industry try to act like we are trash compared to their sweet RJ training. The training may be crap at Spirit but that's the weak ones don't make it.

You do realize the Delta has you go to basic INDOC, and then they send you home to learn the systems of the AC you were awarded on CBTs. I don't know how people don't know their flows by the time they come to class, hell they even send an email telling you when you get the job offer " Know your Flows". I really didn't think the training was that hard. It was time consuming, but not over board. Yes it would be nice to have a few more SIMs. As far as the CAs here, everyone I have flow with has been awesome. They are all professional. Maybe you should look in the mirror to see the problem. Take some accountability.

You whiners crack me up......

STOP IT!

The training was designed for ADULTS that can take the initiative to make some progress on their own. (Notice I didn’t say THEYRE or THERE...)

I am NO rocket scientist, and at no point did I feel put upon, or unnecessarily challenged with the training.

This is the point in your career where you are expected to be able to learn material- perhaps on your own, to an extent.

The training “issues” are EASILY second to the contract...
If someone can’t pass the training here-
I really don’t want to fly with you anyway.

Sack up.
