Anyone hiring?

Thanks! Any idea if VA pilots/fa's can dead head on the other US carriers?

Deadheading means a crewmember is traveling positive space as part of an assigment. I think you mean non-rev, standby. If you're wife is hired by VA you can fly stand-by on the flights and she can too when she's not working but a deadhead means a crewmember is on duty for their particular airline and is doing an assignment. You can also fly standby on other code share partners.

Please stop associating Flight Attendant with career, because it certainly is not. If you want a good career then you have to make sacrifices such as getting an education and skills via college or trade school. Going through two weeks of training to open a door does not a professional make, so please tell your wife to do something else, we have enough housewives pushing carts who think they are owed the world because they pay dues to the AFA. What a joke, as bad as the bartenders union in Vegas.

Ask the senior Flight Attendants as SWA, they probably make more that you do.
I was surprised to hear how well they do. Get out a little more and lose the attitude.
