That didn't exist 10-20 years ago, but it's practically standard new-guy philosophy now. In fact, the ravenous hunger of poaching other regionals is rampant as well. The irony at Eagle will soon be the horrific whining when alas, Eagle becomes the next poachee and the new breed cries to the gods screaming, "why me, why me".
Where do you get "most" from? Lol, me and no one I know are crying because we aren't 50 seat captains, in fact "just about all" are very content with where we are.
As far was eager to poach other flying, what???? Who do you hang out with that wants that?
And 20 years ago, the upgrade was what at the "eagles"? 10 months? What's there to complain about. I fail to see your arguments.
