+100% totally agree. Lets hope he decides to do more work on behalf of this group as well.

Furthermore, he's right. Not sure why people have the expectation for a Capt to do anything but what his job duties are. I also could care less if he shows off his stuff. I am glad that he has been successful. I will never own a boat, plane etc, but that does not mean that he/she should shy away from being happy about it. If they need to fly to 65 to pay for it, again, its their right. I just believe we have to quit sweating this small stuff. There is a huge career earnings gap between junior and senior. It is what it is. We have to move on from getting mad that someone has done better than we will do in this career. It is counterproductive.

Lets focus on a great contract.
