I don't blame new hires for anything. Assuming one is working in the USA, they are in a free country that allows one to choose where they want to work. The person I responded to (Blackbird) was going off on a rant about selling the profession short. I just found that to be amusing, considering he had "Saab" listed in his profile. Assuming he's working at a regional airline and not a corporate operator, it's a bit like the pot calling the kettle black.
