His Last ExpressJet Flight

Doug brought it up. I think it's a lot like having you kid achieve something really great, being so excited about it, but not wanting to spill the beans and steal his thunder. So you leak a little bit out to help build the hype of his/her announcement. I think it's cool. If I worked my ass off running a website to help people network and a guy achieved his goal because of something that I helped create, I'd be starting threads like this too.

Some people like to never officially name their employer on the internet, no matter how easy it may be to figure out. I do this, and I feel like I can speak slightly more freely because I am in no way representing the place that gives me a paycheck.

I'm not trying to call Doug out, be Aloft the sequel, or ruin anyone congrats thread... it's just frustrating is all to wait, build excitement, interest and drama after being tipped off. You know want to tell someone congrats and be happy for their success so they can be an inspiration to others who want to one day to achieve the same success. Letting all know that yes... movement is possible in this industry after such hardship since 9/11 with pay cuts, furloughs and the possibility of the regionals becoming a career job, and simply in my opinion all the waiting, guessing and drama just seems, well ridiculous.

I apologize for my post and hopefully I didn't pee in someones cereal, congrats to whoever it is... but I'll just step out of this thread. Because I just don't want to play the game!

Congrats again.

Have a beer my friend. :beer:

I think I know how this is, big congrats to him or whomever.
 
If JC were a dormitory...I'd blow it up for not telling me who said person was. My guess was Flychicaga or Bob Duck...yet I have no idea who flies for who. Angry face! Joe said he was the one a week ago, and even it were the truth I'd still press the detonate button just cause he got the spot! No offense Joe ;)

Ok I'm over it. Back to drinking beer for whoever moved on to bigger and better things!
 
So some of your guys can stop worrying and relax a little, it's me! I finally was able to leave ExpressJet and move from delusions of grandeur about working at SouthernJets over the past 12-ish years yo ACTUALLY getting hired! OMG OMG OMGZZZZZZ no more VA SJ for me! :)

Some of you guys feel better now? :)
 
Even I have a solid guess if it's an ex NWA poolie. If it is that person, I remember reading the thread long ago about getting hired at NWA. It's a bummer to think about a guy getting that close only to have it taken away.

I hope it's that dude!

A little birdie told me it was...

I wish s/he would come out and tell us the story!

Might not want to make a general public post that announces who he works for.

Congrats to whoever it is. I remember my last flight at XJT. Got off the airplane, walked through the crew room one last time and headed over to the Chief's office. Turned in my ID and walked off into the sunset.

I guess I'm going to have to teach him what "speed line", "half sweet", "awabs", the difference between eCrew and iCrew, and what "RD/Western/FNWA/Northie/RD/Southie/Yellowbird/Wallybird" mean. And how to throw in a Chicago & Southern joke at an a propos time.

Oh and how to speak USAF, USN, Marine, SAC....

As in the proper time to say, "Damn man, what were you in SAC or something? Calm down bro, 5 ways to skin a cat, Hoss!"

Or how to politely say "Maybe that's how they teach it at the Colorado school for wayward boys!"

Don't forget the difference between "Pushing" a button, and "Mashing" a button.
