This is the airlines. They can only rely on superiors and peers if they have a number at the airline they are seeking. I can assure you there are a lot of former bosses who have contacted me to write recommendations. It's amazing how many people come out of the woodwork to butt kiss a journeyman O4 retired graybeard who has a seniority number.
