Wow - yeah - you really showed me there Doofy.
Try reading for comprehension before making replies anyway. You would notice I inferred I was a Captain, in the top 100 actually. My concern is for my senior FOs, who I bet mostly could'nt care less about a shiny 175, but they DO care about Quality of Life and management once again is raping them of it and handing it to new hires while ALPA stands by and does nothing - mainly because Sam the president has been a paid off weak and self serving spoiled rotten rich kid patsy - he doesn't want to rock the boat and damage his precious own flow.
I understand what you're saying. And when I was a Nh in 2010 the CRJ guys got lines on their 2-3rd month, while I waited 7 months before I could hold a crappy one.
The list will balance itself eventually like it always do. Those hired in the E175 will have the same relative seniority in that equipment until they can upgrade. So if there's 100 E-175 lines and you are the 101 you can rest assure you will be the bottom line holder or top RSV guy until the 2016 hires start upgrading.
Now, I understand what you say about Sam, but after talking to him in person I also understand his point. He wants to win small battles one by one, instead of rocking the boat and get nothing.
Let me put is this way...
MANAGEMENT is like a woman with PSM, they are touchy and if you say or do something that cross the line it will explode in furry. But if you give them chocolate, they will treat you a little bit better.
