I know for a fact that when he was the chief pilot at Freedom, my friend’s wife needed cancer surgery. RG was the chief. My friend needed the day off. Scheduling said to talk to the chief pilot. He called RG multiple times, left multiple messages, never got a callback.
Sounds like RG is an awesome guy... plus our experience with the guy. 767 captain, yeah right.

Given a couple things BS (the VP) said in the Training town hall (which seemed innocuous at the time) I wonder if it’s him?

Just because leadership has out of seniority privileges, doesn't mean exercising them is a good idea. I'd be surprised if it's good times for anybody in the cockpit, let alone prudent and the highest level of safety. Just sayin'.

There was a three-day gap from when he asked to answered.
He mentioned the townhall that occurred in that timeframe as providing the answer...

Then, when he got another job ALPA reported the news, observing, "apparently his family got tired of him too and he now works for United."
