If the goal is to alert the world to your distain for people who pass on their discontent and job frustrations, then well done, we're all in awe of you.

Other than that, what do you hope to accomplish? Same drivel every time: look how how wrong you are, I now better. Me, me. me.

You bust into other threads and post the same stuff. As an "expert on everything" you appear in virtually every thread on APC telling others how much you know about everything and that other opinions are wrong. And eventually you will come up with the inevitable question "If you don't like it there, why don't you just leave?" which is just about the most asinine question that has ever graced these pages, yet seems to be unfailingly popular with those who question a pilot's criticism of their situation. It seems that you just can't abide people being critical and wanting to share their opinions with pilots who want to hear from current employees.

Just entertainment, or an ego party that all will be subject to forever more?

How about this: You share your opinions and let others have their opinions but don't tell them that their opinions are wrong. Just because you have a different point of view doesn't make theirs any less valid. Try agreeing with people once in a while or at least let the others have their say without telling them that they don't know what they are talking about.
Hahahah!!!
He IS the resident expert on.... everything.
And one of the most condescending posters, no, the most condescending poster I’ve ever read.

Previous exchanges aside, reserve on the 767 is the best way to make credit-hours.

On the 747 as an FO I usually broke about 80 credit hours per month without open-time trips, etc. I averaged it once and came out with 83 credit hours/month. I know some others experience less than this. Base selection, bid preferences, etc. all play a role here.

Quite possibly because you have a reading comprehension problem.
An agenda... that's laughable. Why are you so butt hurt ?

I only post the truth, no emotional non sense.

Atlas is hiring ! We need pilots !

We get paid 62 hours of min pay, and if you fail bidding you can be out for 40 days at a crack.

Come to Atlas and see for yourself!

Default You don't have to be able to fly to be a pilo

Only a few companies care if you can fly these days, the majority care more about the boxes you checked on the application. Omni is the exception, they actually hire pilots.

No sir... and why would that matter. Atlas pays all their pilots equally. Young, old, regardless of color, weight, and experience. We all have the luxury of 62 hours and weeks and weeks on the road.

Merry Christmas 🎄 ( I hope that's not offensive)

Interesting that you'd find any of those things an insult.

I think it is more of the "attitude" of the writing.
