We aren't happy that things are this way, but there is a process to changing them. Why don't you walk into JO's office and demand 55/hr and let me know what he says.
Why did you come here? We've been telling people for months not to do it for these reasons. Why act so surprised by the suck now?
He's not complaining about the suck that he already knew about.
He's complaining about what he couldn't have known about ... namely posts like yours that come from people who blame him instead of putting the blame where it really lies, with the company, the union, and themselves.
I'm sure it's not the current "suck" that's bothering him. It's getting here to find that things will never improve that's the disappointment. Why, because he sees people saying crap like giving new FOs a verbal slapdown in the cockpit for coming here. And he sees it coming his way from very small men with very small balls but very big mouths. If you're against me on this then you're one of the ones who wear this jacket. So, go ahead and pipe up now and let the rest of us know who not to take seriously on here.
