Some of you guys sound like you own the airline or you have shares in it, cos you feel so bitter other folks want to sign on.
last time i checked, it's still a free world, so you can,t discourage anyone from joining any airline they want to for reasons best known to them or for what they might consider is in the best interest of their career.
If you.re so upset with Arik for late pay, there are plenty of other airlines you can apply to like VK, First Nation, Dana etc, or look futher to Emirates, Qatar etc (if you're sure of yourself) rather than stick to Arik and constantly compain, whine and discourage anyone who shows intrest ,as if its the only airline in the world.
If you're referring to my post, I'm not trying to tell anyone NOT to come to Arik. I'm telling a very naive person there is something fundamentally wrong with his/her character.
What kind of a knob would not have the common sense to realize that he/she is screwing fellow pilots EVERYWHERE by offering to work for FREE? Not only is it naive and foolish it is outright self centered. Having a rich daddy who paid for a type rating at 150 hours, doesn't excuse you from undercutting, no downright stealing from fellow pilots.
I stand firmly behind that.
Now back to Arik, who happens to be hiring pilots for 2 out of 3 1/2 fleets. Want a job with a good rotation, but a lot of ****e to deal with? Come on over and get paid (sometimes). Enjoy your own ****e sandwich in The Centre of Excellence. Just don't be an arse and offer to do it for less or FREE for f**k sake. Have some dignity for your own self worth and show your fellow pilots some respect.
If you want to work for free, go be a missionary.
