Waves,

With all due respect, I don't agree with the premise or argument of, "because my generation had to endure hardship, so should the next". I do agree with you, in that a 12-month training freeze/policy wouldn't be "throwing people under the bus" as Hockey44 stated, but to have it, just because "everyone needs to embrace the suck" as a new-hire on property isn't a valid reason.

Fly safe,
