Your probably right. I still have a hard time wrapping my head around this, though.
It's very sad, if true, that management and recruitment spend time and money snooping around these boards and Facebook profiles of their pilots and flight attendants who have sacrificed everything, including financial security and family relationships, to be part of this industry.
It would seem that the sole purpose of announcing that this practice takes place to groundschool students seems to only promote intimidation amongst new hires and those who strive to join the ranks of professional aviation.
It will be very sweet to see this arrogance backfire.
The fact is, web logs like this didn't exist ten or fifteen years ago, and now young folks planning their career choices can see the truth as spoken by the people who actually work. Commercial pilot practical checkride applicants are down nearly 75% from 10 years ago.
So, I say to those who snoop for management.
Profile this.......
