This whole thing has the feel of FedEx and future dysfunction.

Those I used to fly with said their biggest fear with all of this hiring is the past being forgotten and mistakes repeated. They may have been correct to feel that way.
Not even close to FedEx. Most of the senior guys I fly have actually made comments that since 2014 we’ve hired a bunch of guys with big airline experience and they want the younger crowd to start helping. However, seems like the EB is not necessarily opened to it— I hear this from lots of newbies that want to help— I haven’t ask to help cus I have lots of stuff going at home.
we can’t keep living in the past, airlines are fluid and so should we. Look at the optimizer, BOOM, how do we adapt to that with 2006 expertise? We have to adapt to change and start coming up with new and fresh ideas. Even the management from what I hear is not even close to the terror of the past. So come on, let’s be real, we have tons of talent with legacy experience. We can use new and old to come up with great results.
not 700 dollars/$HR cus UPS won’t respect the language and we are run by truckers. Time to stop that BS
