So please don't give that "be happy to have a job" line. We have all sacrificed to be airline pilots, is it too much to ask to make this place at least better? Make better lines? Not deny our moving expenses? Not deny a legal pairing swap? Not try to make us DH for 18 hours for training? Not deny our ground repo pay because the CP thinks that you're milking it? Not deny upgrade because of a stupid technicality? Then allowing another pilot to change his staffing bid, but not helping out the other pilot. Not deny a hotel during a 4 hour sit to mitigate fatigue? Not screw somebody out of a vacation because of a MM screw up then cover up? Not listening to crews that will and have disqualified for not flying? Then blaming the crew for it.

EatMyPropwash, I believe you're still in training correct?

Welcome to Tarnished Airways, you know, the cheap silver that turns color and leaves a ring of green crap around your neck, yeah that one!
