Zero ability to interact with with people, Multiple divorces, kids hate them, etc. Not all, but I would say a good 25%. To be honest, I was surprised at how many trainwrecks I have flown with only being with the airline for 15 months. With that being said, they have treated me well and are solid pilots, but I am not sure they could easily bring in capt pay in another industry.
Maybe it's just me, but I think you're way out of line. I've been here a whole lot longer than you and, with a very few exceptions, I've found the people I've flown with to be professional, competent, intelligent, and basically enjoyable to fly with.
Not sure what your pre-Delta background is, and I honestly don't care, but you might want to wind the clock and think twice before you decide to criticize your co-workers on a public forum.
