Everyone needs to help educate one another on unity .
The 220 category is a bit of an odd culture. Most of the captains are junior and very thankful for the quick upgrade. A bit full of themselves and reluctant to bite the hand that fed them. Also "servant leadership" is strongly espoused to their LCAs and that culture definitely trickles down. They seem to think they're a little bit smarter, cleaner, and holier than the others. The 220 culture very much reminds me of the culture back at SkyWest.
