Out of curiosity, why do we allow some of our retirees continue to post unnecessary comments on to the BG?
I get some did Great work in the past, left us a good legacy, but there’s a few that just need to have a long needed timeout.
if their experience and expertise in the past is so useful then why not hire them as consultants? Seems like some just like to sow discord to anyone who doesn’t share their opinions. And quite frankly they don’t have skin in the game anymore. If the EB wants their opinion and expertise so badly, then maybe they should be contracted and allowed to use the BG as they see fit.
or if they so chose to let them stay, why not create a section for retirees and let them play there all they want? I do know there’s just a very small percentage of pilots who post and most of us lurk. But it really irks me when these people come out of the woodwork to hate on other pilots opinions. I really don’t give a crap about their current opinions for they get to sit at home and yell at clouds and post on the BG. Quite frankly is sad that with what we make here and with our retirement people still find the need to come to talk crap after they quit. Seems like a clinger stage 5 move.
