Why would current Go Jets pilots appologize for mistakes that may have been made by their forefathers when the company was started? If this became society policy, none of us would be able to work because we would all spend entire days researching those who our ancestors have hurt in the past so that we could go and seek them out in order to give a long overdue and forgotten appology. There comes a time to let it go, and my point is that once the company is fully established, the incoming employees should not have to bear the wrath for mistakes that were made prior to their existence.

Lets pretend that I was going to work for Go Jets, which I am not. I can not see how me going to work for Go Jets at this point would in any way hurt any TSA pilot directly, therefore I do not believe an appology by me is in order. It sucks what happened to TSA, but the reality is that it is business and as long as we have a free market economy, the possibility will exist that these sorts of business desicions will be made...whether right or wrong in the eye of the beholder.

I believe that unions have helped laborers in the past, but I also believe that many unions have hurt laborers in the recent past due to not being willing to give up a little (or sometimes a lot) in the tough times, after reaping the benefits of the good for so many years. In some ways I feel that the unions have brought many of these types of actions on themselves and all of the people that they "represent".

We seem to have reached a point in society where people feel a certain entitlement, and a view that "the employer should be greatful to have me". I agree with this statement, however in the process it seems that we have forgotten that we need to be greatful to the employer as well. Without one, there could not be the other, no matter which side you are on.
