Really? Hundreds are that stupid? A few maybe, but not hundreds. Rule number one in this business is believe nothing you hear and question everything you see.
Stupid, no. Young and naive yes. Not to mention, if you can't believe anything in this industry, why would anyone aspire to get into this business to begin with, or bother moving on to "better airlines" throughout their career? Also if your little philosophical conundrum is true, everyone will have to concede that it may just as well be a lie. More likely is your response is just a cop out/defense of managements disgusting tactics. Why another pilot would defend that is beyond me. People can be held accountable if we start holding them accountable. Time to stop taking everything on the chin and asking for another with smiles on or faces.
