You poke fun at those "old farts", but we are starting to see the "Millennial-Entitlement" age at UAL and it isn't pretty at times. Some of these "hotshots" have little to no respect for the opportunity they have, and as a result, some have been shown the door. I would much rather have someone who is willing, and able, to be trained versus someone who thinks they know better and blows off training. I kid you not, some of these kids are pulling out cellphones and texting in the middle of a sim.
