Not the first mil new hire with any big airline connections to give him a clue about his new career.
Most mil airline pilots I know figure out pretty quick the importance of our union and that being an airline pilot is the easiest money they’ve made.
Not sure you were here for LEAP training but doubt it was mil guys that fed that requirement.
How exactly would a prior career at say Skywest, Gojet or (insert cheapest bidder Express undercutter du jour) give you such a high horse to ride to being a staunch union stalwart? I know many mil guys who’ve been furloughed at least once that would think you may be the one needing the long lasting mentoring.
