Starting PrimeFlight first day very soon. what should i expect?
I want to keep this short, but I feel like I made a huge mistake.
I got let go from my job a few months ago. My end goal in life is to become a pilot, so I wanted to test the waters and start from the bottom. I started looking for ramp agent careers and applied to Swiss, Prime, and United.
Prime called me within 22 hours after I submitted my resume. The job market is bad, so I took the firstcome, first serve opportunity, but now I feel like that was a huge red flag.
After two weeks of waiting, I finally started training, which was only two days. Those two days were so rushed and sloppy. Apart from "passing" some stupidly easy tests, I didn't feel like I was actually being prepared for the job. The whole thing made me uncomfortable because of how unprofessional the environment felt and how desperate they seem to be for people in my area.
I personally feel like I got tricked into working inside the warehouse instead of the role I actually wanted, which is working outside around aircraft. That's the experience I wanted because I feel like it would actually help me with my future career as a pilot.
This is taking me some time to write because I'm honestly so upset that my mind is clouded, and I don't even know what else to say.
I just want to hear from other Primers. What was your ramp experience like? Should I suck it up and work with Amazon packages in the meantime, or is it worth looking somewhere else?
Also to end it on a note i was to close to walking out of the classroom but im going to wait until they give me my SIDA Id incase i find another career at the airport should i wait for it to arrive?
