Life at Compass

[broncoav8r]

Did I just get called a newb?

Don't worry, you won't be the only one...

 

[derg]

thatll be the day. I'm pretty sure I'm safe in DTW. Unless for some crazy reason senior guys want DTW so they can sit reserve.

You can't leave. I'm bringing my special cocktail of snark, sarcasm and aloofness to your base this late fall/winter.

I'm going to grow a big old "Northie" mustache too.

I liked the Dergstache, you just didn't have an ALPA position to go with it.

I'm sure I'll be strolling past the fountain as you're ready to leave to go to some far away world. I'll be going to the five star resort on merriman road.

You'd be fairly junior, at Delta. Whoopsies. Wait, maybe that was a rhetorical question?

He said he was offered the interview. He never did the interview, so I'm guessing he'd still be junior at spirit wings.

Slightly back on topic. Anybody willing to shed some light on how seniority is between the two bases? Could a new hire expect DTW right away or at least relatively quickly? I guess with the 166 hires it should move decent. Anybody have info on where reserve cuts off and what junior lines look like? Maybe I should check the thread in the hiring section ha....

Reserve in September is about 25% deep. That's on the FO side. Guys are all over the place on line structure. Some enjoy getting 75 hours and maxing their days off others enjoy working like ranch hands and having 11 days off. Really your pick in DTW.

Ask the XJT guys hired in 2005 how that Kool Aid tastes now.

It tastes like the left seat, as in all of them are in it.

First year pay + ranch hand sounds like what I want. Pay will be a tough pill to swallow if I make the move. But at least I'll see movement.

At least this way with movement the choice is yours and not scheduling's

I know a FO in DTW who gets build up/cdo lines. He says with his seniority, he would have no problem holding a regular line in MSP. I see no reason why you wouldn't get DTW before you finish training.

MSP and DTW, two great garden spots!

 

[Dugie8]

MSP and the surrounding areas are nice. I live in KRST I couldn't really imagine living anywhere else.

It is nice the last week of June till the first week of August, then it gets waaaay to cold.

 

[Dugie8]

The cold isn't that bad. A few days get "bad" but for the most part it's just winter. Rochester gets gloomy for about 3 months that's about the worst of it.

 

[ClarkGriswold]

I can always put more clothes on if I am cold. I can't get anymore naked if I am hot, nor would anyone want to see that. MN it is.

@amorris311 we were told in class that compass' embraer program is so good that airways basically copied it.

 

[ClarkGriswold]

Atleast it's a dry cold...
