That doesn't change the facts that our benevolent employer doesn't care a rat's ass about any of us personally and will take potshots at us individually (like CW) whenever they can. As a whole they don't care, but individually they are very vindicative and petty.
Maybe in a few years you will realize how good you have it here as well as how some people will always hold it against you. I have js with CW many times and a more professional pilot you will not find.
Wake up and smell the coffee....

Well... I am not a newbie and have been here as long as CW and know him well, that is why I was a bit un-nerved by his tone. But, after stepping back I saw his message and also appreciated his comments. As far as your comments, I totally disagree...I think you have it backwards. We, those in postions to interface with you on a one-to-one level do care. Many have given up trying to do the right thing, but that doesn't mean we don't care.
I beleive that this company just and any very large entity has a life of its own, in that small changes except on a very limited basis are swallowed up by the larger events. I challenge you to be part of the solution and not part of the problem. Ken Mase, as pollyana-ish as he was was right in that your attitude will determine most of your outcomes. Hang in there and don't get angry, get motivated.
