No rewriting history here. I saw it happen before my own eyes. But you just keep having that delta attitude brother. You are giving all the good guys at delta a bigger hill to climb up to gain respect that you and guys with attitudes like yours keep tearing down.
And, I have always planned on having to interview for a job. No sense of entitlement here. I have had to interview for every job I have ever had and nobody has given me a damn thing. I have worked for everything I have. And I am proud of it!
As far as time goes, about 13000 hours and probly about 7000 TPIC. 6.5 year upgrade all while starting over at a new regional years ago.
And I am not upset with the endeavor/delta
flow. I have no desire to work for delta. I do get sick of the "im better than you" delta pilot attitude though. Cant tell you how many times i have been on a dl js with the captain spewing his insulting comments to the fo about us regional guys. (i even had one 75 Ca tell a fa the reason dl closed dfw was because of those damn lil rjs). Preciate ya.
All the while i show nothing but courtesy and respect to EVERY person on my js.
And how many times have i said hi or given a nod to a dl pilot in a terminal and received no acknowledgement in return?? Too many to count. So i dont do it anymore. Unless they do it first.
So just keep telling us how bad you have it ace. Its definitely entertaining.
Right back atcha, ace..nobody gave me anything either..especially a preferred interview at Delta.
I'll see your pizza delivery with washing dishes at a diner when I was 12. Worked plenty, and I'll save you any military anecdotes about working on a ship if you'll save me your "working class hero" sob story, brother.
Back to the point. Nobody's looking down on anybody..except for the 9E guys threatening to crap all over EtD new hires. That is the title of this thread, right? Don't come to 9E cause we'll make your life miserable and bust you back to the 172..talk about condescending and arrogant!
As for being professional and courteous..it runs both ways, and the vitriol spat at DL and mainline pilots is what started this whole argument in the first place.
