Bottom line is they can hire who ever they want, we all have to perform to the same standards. There are no shortcuts to a MV LOE OR LINECHECK . The sooner you picklehead backwoods morons realize this , we can stop wasting time on these pointless conversations and focus on a contract .
Bottom line is UA has alot of guys who don’t really care for minorities . Most of them assume you feel or think the same way they do just because you’re both white and I don’t. It disgusts me sometimes to sit there on the flight deck and listen to some of the crap that comes out of some of these guys mouths at times regarding this stuff.
I can give several but I won’t do it on an open public forum.
You made my point though, if you suck you suck. Good aviators don’t need to be coddled through no matter who you are or identify as. And yes, certain individuals have been given more leniency to MV/LOE performance than others. If you can’t accept that it actually happens then I can’t help you.

There is no political capital to be gained by the ruling class when the people accept their differences and unite. Keep them at war with each other so they don’t turn their anger on them.
