While I spent many a dark night flying those things in a previous life I decided to jump into the abyss and now sit on the other side of the fence. While you may protest that we have similar issues with management and so forth I find the wrench of entitlement (that I see from many on this board) vile and without merrit. It's like being a AAA baseball player guys. Sure you might have a lot of prospects looking at you and sure the men from the big show might buy you a beer every now and then but until you get sent up you will never be my "Brother" in this industry. Your very existence, while many argue is essential to the Airline industry, is a complete contradiction to my own betterment in this profession.
WOW!!! Another reason I enjoy paying my union dues!
