Truth is, it's not a generation thing that's the problem, it's a gene pool problem.

And too often we bury the best of the gene pool at Arlington and are stuck with pilots who thought it was their right to never save a dime and buy multiple homes, boats, planes and cars. And then unsurprisingly the pension disappears and so they're willing to throw everyone under a bus for a pay raise most feel is inadequate even if we tightened scope.... ?

The man is a douche bag and if I was a drinker I'd like to propose a toast to all of the senior guys here who bother and actually enjoy interacting hanging with those of us on the bottom. They don't pull up the ladder but instead stand up for everyone on the list especially where it matters most - employment.

Thanks, you guys rock.
Great post. One of the best I've read.
