I'm not convinced. If it were TM, there would be a little more of:

"Organized labor sucks and when I become management, you ALL deserve to be fired because we have so many pilots with no talent blah, blah, blah"

Are you implying that in order to not get fired or get good schedules you have to pick up mission modes? Go back to the rock you crawled out from under. Troll.

None of these things have happened to me either. And this move the metal mentality you say , is prevalent at any airline by virtue of MEL's and other said provisions to keep airplanes flying as long as everything is in compliance. I have never been asked or forced to accept anything that wasn't up to par. Heck, the AB tells Mx control everything via ACARS even before you have a chance to write it up. Attrition rate is due to several other factors, personal and professional. You definitely seem unhappy here, if you don't like the way somethings are done with the company, write a memo, don't cut the branch you are sitting on.

And just because, you take pride in your work, like your job and call out people spewing hatred online, doesn't mean you pick mission modes. Come on guys, we are supposed to be professionals! (Direct quote from Reservoir Dogs!
