If you look at the history of this thread, you'll see that for many years, posters like Talon and me wrote positive and constructive information geared toward helping potential new hire Atlas pilots become informed about the current status of the Atlas hiring process and specifics of life at Atlas.

When Atlas first bought Southern, we all regarded it as good news until the company decided that they would amalgamate instead of negotiate our new contracts. At that point, we continued to write informative posts clarifying the confusing and negative situation that the company created.

Those of us who still carry on the tradition of informing potential new hires with honest and clear opinions about life at Atlas are frequently attacked and told that our opinions are wrong.

I urge readers who are genuinely interested in Atlas as a potential employer to go as far back as possible in this thread to get a feel for the history of hiring at Atlas and how we got to the place that we find at ourselves today. Doing this will also give a clearer view of the agendas those who are the current frequent posters.
Very well said, Sir. Perhaps the original intent of this thread is salvageable if enough folks remain level headed and avoid the histrionics. It is an open forum and of course people are free to post as they wish. In like manner, other users are free to pay close attention to posts that answer their questions and disregard other posts which do not.
