I like the ORH, one stop shopping and yet our simpletons can't understand simple!
My fellow UA pilots appear to be lazy and untrainable when it comes to change. For a large cross section of our group perhaps it is because they didn't bring a lot to the table when they were hired? Not being a flamer but to ignore that fact is to ignore the elephant in the room. They just don't understand how to train for something new. We had to change our checklist in the late 80's early 90's to be the same response for all fleets. Too many could not adapt to different fleet specific calls and responses.

Well, congratulations, you've managed to disprove your point in your own post.
You remember when adopting the QRC that it was "Pure and total chaos with books all over the SIMULATOR" in the same post when you suggest United pilots that aren't satisfied with training by computer to change pretty much every habit pattern they have developed over the previous xxx decade(s) are inadequate.
Do you have any idea how many times I'm going to accidentally hold the F/O's hand when they turn on the lights over the next couple of years?
The irony is that pilots who talk like you do are usually the ones that absolutely s#$K the most... but they are too arrogant to realize it.
You really are special. And I don't mean the good kind.
