I will give you the cliff notes to my resume: 7 years ACMI, upgraded as soon as I got my ATLP (actually needed my line training to have enough experience) and before a lot of people that had been there way longer upgraded. Next, 8 years at CitationShares, and again, upgraded first in class. Now, Spirit, upgraded according to SENIORITY, took 3 years, will make more money than you every year until I retire.
In 8 years of fractional I don't think I have met a guy as crappy as you sound. I loved everyone of my jobs, I love flying, but I really think one week with you would be enough to look for something else. Merit can work in a small company, seniority is required for big companies. You can only work according to SOP, promoting according to merit will lead to people undercutting safety margins, and management taking us for a ride.
