Years ago ago I was at a Air Inc in Atlanta. Eastern had gone under, and there was a guy who was at Valujet talking with 30 year old golden boy Cpt from United (who’s father was also United). He was I think the youngest Cpt there at the time and was there looking at resumes for recruitment. So this former Eastern guy gives him his resume and I guess he’d been driving a cab or something to make ends meet to feed his family.... and this douche tells the guy “Well, ya know, at United, we really prefer to see an unbroken career path..” and hands the resume back. I got outa line.

Thankfully tools like this fool are the minority. What self important sanctimonious SOB.

FTR... I’m a legacy Alaska hire.
