The anonymity of these forums really is bringing out the worst in both sides.

That being said I understand a new hire FO being goaded into acting as a pawn for either management or his senior brothers.

The naivete shown by the call for a more intimate relationship with "our current Management Team" is surprising.

Not withstanding the excellent people skills of the DO, CP, and DOT they actually have less experience protecting their own certificate in the Spirit route system than many junior FO's at Spirit.

They are errand boys, sent by grocery clerks, to collect a bill.

That bill is your seniority number. Make no mistake about it.
