So I'll ask you this question BB. What exactly is your beef? How exactly did you get skrewed? All the rationalization in the world can't fix what's happened to me, so I just got over it. But I do have to say that listening to an over entitled, whiny child such as yourself, cry and complain and stomp his feet over and over gets tiresome.
If you really hate it here due to the horrible perceived injustice that you feel you've suffered . Please by all means leave. There are lots of airlines hiring at the moment. If you are going to stay here learn to deal with your situation. It's not that hard and all of your whining, foot stomping and pouting is not going to fix a thing.
Well said Hoss. As a fellow L-UAL 1997 hire at the 18 year mark, I have asked that same question several times. I never get an answer.
When I look at L-CAL pilots around our DOH and see how far ahead of us on the list they are I just don't get bent about it. They went to work for a twice bankrupt airline that was by default slimmed down and better fit to handle the post 9-11 world. L-UAL simply hadn't been through the process yet to deal with it. That turned out bad for us post 2001, and good for our counterparts at L-CAL in terms of upward mobility. That's life. You and I accepted it and moved on. I chuckle at all this God's gift to aviation and brain surgeon talk. Who are the ones acting entitled here?
