Alaska Airlines is hiring pilots

[ZapBrannigan]

I bet your current address threw the flag. : \

Because they assume it means I won't be able to read? ;-)

 

[Maurus]

Haha. Yes. I think you shoot an email off explaining why what they did was illegal

 

[BEEF SUPREME]

Applied!

 

[ZapBrannigan]

Me too

 

[SurferLucas]

Anybody get past the pre-screening? I answered "yes" to all of the questions and it wouldn't let me continue.

Velo blacklisted you

 

[ZapBrannigan]

It's a way too small industry. ;-)

If you follow Velo/Fishfreighter at APC, he HATES Virgin America. Maybe him and Cherokee Cruiser should get together.

He got his ass banned over there too

Oh, I'm probably the one on Velo's black list.

No pun intended. Actually the pun would be hilarious, but not necessarily intended for the scope of this thread.

 

[SlumTodd_Millionaire]

Come to think of it, I should probably ask Velo for a recommendation letter. I'm probably the only one around here for whom he would write one.

"Oh, I'm probably the one on Velo's black list."

LOL...it took me 30 seconds to get that. I was so confused there for a bit.

Slow night I guess.

The rhythm. The flat feet. The "Oh snap, they got wings here". Work with me, Yoda!

 

[SurferLucas]

Lifts drink up...here's to all of us on mighty Velo's Black list, may we all have great careers somewhere other than Alaska...and I really hope he wants to get a ride on one of my GEG-SEA flights...that'll be a fun day.

 

[Maurus]

User fees for all!

with his rep there that could help...( just from what I've heard...no first hand data on that) I'm not applying, but he would throw a fit if I got on there!

You should try. Perhaps he would go into early retirement and you would be heralded has Alaska's dragon slayer.

Oh I've asked around about Mr Captain. I'm the awesomest asshat • pilot evah Velo..and let's just say most of the FO's roll their eyes and reply "I have him on my no-fly list". Apparently the FA's mock him and his "little man syndrome". Of course, this is all "second hand", but let's just say the stories don't vary too much.

 

[derg]

Just from the peanut gallery here, but I'm sure he's faced some challenges, as have we all from time to time. Let's just hope he's doing better and has moved forward.

Like we all should.

So, back to Alaska hiring pilots....

PS. Adjustment bureau was a cool flick...
