LPT: This is a small industry. Best to not throw mud.
And here is a free history lesson. UPS used to be a crap job. FDX used to be a crap job. Airborne used to be a great job. As recently at 2012 pilots were beating down the door trying to get hired at Atlas. This industry is white water with lots of rocks.
And no Atlas pilot ever had to pay for his airplane's gas with his personal credit card.
