One time many years ago ...

A relatively new hire F/O tell me that we were “white collar” like management. He was convinced.

I spent the next three days trying to convince him that yes, our truck might be more expensive ... that we might haul pax instead of hogs ... that yes we might require more education ... yes we might have slightly more responsibility ... yes we might be more likely to make the nightly news if we don’t keep her between the lines ... but, at the end of the day ...

backer on down good buddy ... we gotta cross dat fix at 250 ka nots ... atc got that radar gun onus

good guy ... it took a few years but he figured it out ... many never do.
