I once flew with an Express Captain who was still bitter because he was a PAN AM professional engineer that came over to Delta and when the union negotiated them spots on the pilot list if they had the credentials, went out on a LOA to get his tickets then came to Delta and had to fly 500 hrs as copilot before bidding captain. I was too new to fully care, but somehow he thought he had been wronged in the whole transaction.
