Ok, lets take a step back. Please read my comments above. I was responding to a post that has been edited to a blank line. I should have quoted it, my bad.

I am not slamming new hires, I am all for helping them and educating them about the DP process in a respectful and non-threatening manner. I apologize for obviously giving the wrong impression to a couple of you.

I am not slamming new hires.

I was saying that the justifications in Gunter's original post (family to feed, low first year pay, whatever) are not reasonable excuses for picking up DPs. I don't think the Captains picking them up can use any excuse for doing so.

That is simply my opinion. If you feel that my adamant support the SIG is misplaced then I can't do much about that.

Once again, I am not slamming new hires.

Did I mention that I was not trying to slam new hires?
