Agreed, however times have changed. American wholly owned operators give you one interview when you come aboard. If you meet their standards you are in the queue to move on to the majors. No walking on eggshells wondering if you'll get the review and final acceptance.
Just because people payed for training years ago, made $22hr starting and worked 16 hr days doesn't mean that has to be the status quo from here until eternity. Things change.
United says this will be industry leading. Let's see what they deliver.
