Boy, I'll tell ya. I just spent about an hour and a half reading all these pages on this thread. It just makes me even more sure I did the right thing leaving RAH when I did (2 years ago). Why doesn't everybody just line up on the ramp, facing each other like they did during the Revolutionary war, shoot at each other, and see who is left standing? Airline flying is not now, or ever will be, like it was in the past. What happened to the "love" of flying? I guess that's gone too. Now it's just to see who can bite the biggest chunk out of someone else's *ss and get away with it. Sorry guys, just my .02. After 36 years of flying, I never saw it get better, only worse.
