For those who have the character and fortitude to persevere through the hard beginning years of airline experience, a rewarding and lucrative future is theirs. For those with unrealistic expectations, as is the case with this impatient pilot, discouragement and disgruntlement usually follow when those inflated expectations pop. The rest of us are rewarded with a seniority boost.
Good lord. We are completing the mission and getting the job done, with no work actions, something our main line brothers and sisters can’t always say. We are honoring the contract and doing our best to perform safely.
With that said, we are allowed to voice our opinions. The professionalisms you preach and fortitude you claim we need has proven itself out. We get the job done and we still do it better than most, despite our current predicament . Kudos on an super old thread.
