I've not replied in years. I've been here at my airline for 7 years as an fo and have over 5000 hours in my plane on that seat alone, yet i'm still considered not experienced enough nor deserving enough for an upgrade by some. When certain people post on here saying that they signed onto ' XYZ ' airline and their dealing with not upgrading for 2-3 years it makes me cringe and I only take some solace in the fact that they indeed are children and their thought process is flawed. Many of us have cashed in and spent longer than you have total time in vacation or sick time, yet you feel the nerve to spout on a forum that you deserve and are entitled to much more. I understand their position, I just wish they would speak and act and dress and carry themselves as such because lately i'm seeing a class of pilot that leaves me wishing I were at another career.
