I'll agree that if they're not doing anything except complaining, they don't really have a right to complain. But you have no idea if this guy could be one of the OC members who has been campaigning hard for the union for the past few months. He might've ended up in a crappy place, but he might be working to change that. You don't know, so who are you to judge? And where do you suggest he work right now? Where is this "somewhere else" that we can migrate to in the state that the industry is currently in?
1. I did not call him stupid.
2. At any point over his tenure there he could have benefited from unprecedented hiring at other regionals and have already upgraded elsewhere.
3. Mistakes imply an accident. Going to work there is not a mistake, it is a choice.
4. I suggest he sit tight and be happy he has a job......I dont.
5. "Somewhere else" would be a carrier over the last few years with substantial movement and growth. SkyWest comes to mind.
6. The union vote did not succeed, no reason in dwelling on that.
7. No I dont feel he has much to stand on complaining. We all choose our own.
8. Complaining and action are two different things. Lets not replace one with the other.
