Westbrook is a poster child for the "we've always done it this way" crowd, along with the "we only give a crap about the very senior pilots" crowd.

He's the one that seems adamant on making LUS new hires' pay anniversary the same as the LAA pay anniversary (i.e., training completion, not DOH). There's absolutely no good reason to change to the LAA pay anniversary system. None. But he seems to support that.

He's also one of the most vocal guys against the jumpseat IVR system and made his impassioned plea that the IVR system has destroyed the meaning of seniority (although I beg to differ...I still cannot bid 777 CA). And he's the guy who's purposefully bumped jumpseaters from their reserved 1W just because he was traveling on an A1 pass and could.
