Not likely. The majority there are meek lambs who are incapable of acting in self defense. If they were sailors, they would go down with the ship sobbing like schoolgirls even if a lifeboat was within reach. I've heard at least 4 of the domicile reps are not only willing to sell the pilots down the river, but are actually eager to do it because they are trembling in fear and desperately want to go home and be left alone.
Supposedly one was seen behind the building in Euless on break banging his head against the concrete wall and another was in the mens room with his hands pressed tightly against his ears saying, "la-la-la-la-la-la" when one of the visiting pilots asked him for an explanation. A third has called home several times repeating that he "misses his mommy".
In all seriousness though, the stories I'm hearing are pathetic.
