Why are we still hammering guys that got hired with lower times? We are share the dream to be a pilot, some are luckier than other. Why so much "I flew 3k hours before I got picked up to fly, and his kid with 500 hours got picked up the very same job" Seriously, this is got to stop. How you think lower time guy feel if he's flying with a captain that think like you do? Come on, and please prove how unsafe is it that guys got hired with lower time? Because you have to work little harder to explain to the guy? Please just help each other out for crying out loud! It's not the guys fault he/she got hired with 500 hours!
Oh, and this is a very small industry!
