It’s the CA’s that concern me. I fly with people who are so out to lunch it’s not even funny.
The CA’s are the ones who concern me more too. But also consider that as FO’s we have less exposure to what the range of other FO’s think because the only FO’s we’re hearing much from are our self-selected group of friends. So, it’s possible that the FO’s as a whole aren’t that much different from the CA’s. I don’t know.

I’m just saying I’ve been around here a while. As others have said, we hire a certain type. I remember during the build-up to TA1 and TA2 trying to convince people to hold out for better, and the responses I’d hear were often mind-blowing in their acquiescence, out of touchedness, and unwillingness to hold out for more. Same thing during the -800 SL issue. It makes me think of the first part of the “Tears in the Rain” speech: “I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe.” But then you’re saying you’ve heard similar things so I think you know what I’m talking about.
