Dear Lord please tell me that isn't as true as i sadly believe it is, nevermind actually...
Its just funny how many people can think the world revolves not only around them but that the world knows what they want and is trying to get it done before they ask.

Busting training as a new hire seems to me to be uncommon, but it happened to one in our class who I'd say had a stellar attitude and lets say, came from a good background. They just didn't pass their checkrides. Also, I think one was removed in the class prior to me per their background check. So its not out of the realm, come in with a high horse and I'm sure you'll be a target. I know they track problems during training so just because you have a different instructor every morning at 5am doesn't mean that guy is not in the loop.

As to firing pilots while on a flow, if you're Delta and flow down to CPZ and then are fired, are you automatically fired at Delta as well? Is that in the LOA, if so I'll go find it and read it.
