Yep I’m annoyed too. Oh well, guess as the old saying goes, life ain’t fair.
They’re hiring personality, not experience, after a certain amount of time. I’ve flown with some ten plus year guys that are great and deserve to go but I’ve also flown with many bitter, entitled guys that feel mainline
owes them a spot and can’t figure out why they didn’t pass the interview.
