Who else do you deal with that gives you this "feel"? How in the world does it give you a "feel" for the pilot that will be sitting next to you at whatever legacy you go to?
I've seen some stretches and the AA/Delta WO have their own issues but WOW is this ever a stretch. "Go work for a non-wo to get a feel for who you will be working for".......You are going to go to whoever calls you first anyway.

I'll keep my insurance (flow) policy in effect while I see what's out there.
So I'm going to ASSume that you both work for a WO. You're telling me you can't gauge the culture at American or Delta (depending which WO) by working within their system? If you're answer is no, then you are either oblivious or don't have an understanding for what a corporate culture even is.
No one said by any means this would be a sole discriminator. It is certainly an advantage to being non-WO, however big or small. If you have multiple offers, it could be huge. If you have one then it's not even a consideration. You WO guys are blowing this out of proportion and exaggerating minute details.
