Again, I appreciate the help guys and the words of wisdom. I did have the oppurtunity to meet the "queen" on several ocassions. At first she was, to put it kindly, not as friendly as her other counterparts I have met in the USA.
But as the time went on and the more so called "important" people backing me as my references and calling on my behalf she became much more tolerable.
I came to a cross-roads with USA Regionals and the career with PAL and other PI airlines. As I have been taught that the first job may not always be the perfect job or at least far from it, but it takes a little elbow grease and rolling of the sleeves to find a better place in the end.
