I have 38 years left in this industry, we are all doing the right thing.

There's a reason that Mesa isn't having mass attrition. Turbine pic isn't important and it's dying fast. I sat down with the head of recruitment from united, he said to me that total time matters, but they do not punish those who through no fault of their own have been stuck for 5+ years in the right seat of an rj. A Mesa guy with 5k total and 1500 pic and a expressjet guy with 6000 total and no pic, I got the vibe are the same on paper.
Hired at 23? I didn't even know what I wanted to be when I grew up back then!
